Bluford Library provides online resources and services to support all classes, including fully-online, partially-online, or hybrid courses. We offer off-campus access to a variety of online resources and services (e.g. e-books, journal articles, electronic reserves, item delivery, and tailored research assistance via email, phone and chat). The goal is to provide students, faculty, and staff in off-campus locations with the same library expertise, services, and support that are available on campus. If you have any questions, please contact us.
When using many of these resources off-campus, you may be prompted to enter a username and password. The username and password will be your OneID username and password, which is the same you use to access Blackboard and other university resources.
For our current faculty, employees and students, we will mail books from our collection to you, free of charge, with a prepaid label to return them. Please contact circ@ncat.edu for additional information.
Additionally, you may take advantage of our Cooperative Library Lending Agreement (PDF) that allows current students, faculty, and employees to borrow books from any of the 16 constituent libraries of the University of North Carolina.
When you need materials that are not available at the Bluford Library, you can request an interlibrary loan or document delivery service. See our Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery page for information.
Due dates for items will vary based on which library is loaning it to you. Bluford Library's loan lengths are available here on our website. Always note the due date for each item because you are responsible for any fines if the lending library does not receive the item back before the due date.
Renewals are not automatic and must be requested from the library that owns the item. Renewals may not be possible on some items. Access your library account to renew items from Bluford Library. Contact us at circ@ncat.edu or 336.285.4164 for assistance.
The library building is currently closed to the public during the university's Winter Break until Saturday, January 23, 2021.
Please use our online services.
