- Databases
Foley offers hundreds of subscription Databases that are available remotely. Our databases offer full text articles, streaming videos, music, and subject specific technical resources.
- Primo Library Search
Primo functions as our library catalog, but also serves a search portal to many of our databases. From Primo you can search for books, articles, movies, and more, place holds for library materials to be mailed to you, or request a book from one of our Summit partner libraries. Learn more about this service on our Summit guide.
- Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary Loan is a system of lending between libraries, you can request articles and books not available at Foley to be sent from another library. Articles are sent electronically and usually arrive within 1 business day, though we do ask you allow a week for requests. Books take a bit longer for shipping but we can mail them to distance learners that live more than 35 miles from campus.
