National Emergency Library Now Open
by Van Pelt and Opie Library
More than one million digitized books are now openly available through the National Emergency Library. This library, an initiative of the Internet Archive and numerous universities and colleges, provides immediate access to works supporting teaching and research across many disciplines. Most works are from the 20th century. Some leisure reading is also included. The National Emergency Library will be available through June 2020. Registration is required to access the collection. Sign up here.
The Van Pelt and Opie Library is committed to providing awareness of and access to temporarily open or free resources made available during the COVID-19 period. See our COVID-19 Temporary Resources guide for more details.

"Writing a book, just like building a library, is an act of sheer defiance." Susan Orlean
