Distance Education

Overview of Services

The University Libraries provide library services to students who are enrolled in UTK distance education classes, faculty who teach distance education classes, extension agents, and agricultural research agents across the state.

Students may request reference or research assistance or help using the libraries' resources. Students may also request books and copies of journal articles.

Visit the UT Libraries' Databases (for articles).
Check the UT Libraries' catalog (for books).
Check WorldCat - a catalog of materials in libraries worldwide.

Students enrolled only in independent study classes are not eligible for Distance Education Library Services. Here is a page with resources that are open for you to use: http://www.lib.utk.edu/offcamp/indstudy.html
