Useful resources for Independent projects

You can access the resources in a number of ways. Go to the search tool Primo and click on "Databases" at the top menu. Search for the name of your resource or choose a type in the drop down menu to the right. You will also find some of the resources on the database page . Licensed resources can only be used within the university. SLU student and staff can use SLU's VPN service to access the resources when off-campus. Free resources can be accessed by everyone.
