University of Florida Graduate School
The Libraries' memberships in the Research Libraries Group and
the Center for Research Libraries give faculty and students
access to many major scholarly collections. The Libraries also are
linked to major national and international databases. Many materials
not held on campus can be quickly located and borrowed through
one of the cooperative programs to which the Libraries belong.
Consult with a reference librarian to take advantage of these
services. Publications describing specialized services are available at
reference and circulation desks throughout the Libraries.
