Online Support for Globe University Library Users


Online students who live many miles from a bricks and mortar campus sometimes wonder how they will find the resources they need to complete assignments and projects. At Globe University-Online, we provide students engaged in distance learning access to online books, magazines, databases and journals. These resources are available to all students, whether they are studying online or learning in one of our campuses in Minnesota and the upper Midwest.

Contact Globe University-Online.  Call toll-free 1-877-609-8889.

Giving students the support they need to make good use of our resources

In addition to making these materials available to our online students, we provide instruction so that students know how to navigate the software. This allows them to spend more time actually using the books and databases they need for their coursework. That is typical of learning online at Globe University. We give you the support you need to be successful.

Library materials for online students

Our online library includes resources such as the following:

  • Online databases. Globe provides students with access to thousands of articles, reports and professional sources. Our extensive database selection comes from some of the largest academic and technical publishers, including Gale, Ebsco and ProQuest. We also have access to specialty databases, such as Hoovers, CCF and VetMed Resource.
  • E-books. We offer thousands of complete books online on a variety of topics.
  • Books 24/7. This resource includes thousands of specialty books and reports in a wide range of professional business and information technology topics.
  • General reference online. Students are just a click away from answers to questions. Our resources include dictionaries, encyclopedias, almanacs and other reference works.

Support available to library users

We provide services such as those listed here to help students be successful online library users:

  • Lunch and learns. We offer lunchtime webinars and teleconferences on a wide variety of subjects of interest to online learners, including plagiarism, style sheets, special research topics, bibliographic citation and outlining your project.
  • Online librarian. Our online librarian is available to answer questions via chat, IM, e-mail and telephone.
