I am not a current student and need to use the library

SJSU alumni do not have remote access to university databases, but there are ways to find free, scholarly resources online. Visit the SJSU Alumni Access to Library Scholarly Resources guide to see what is available to you.

If you live in the Bay Area, you can get access to most of the university databases by coming to the King Library and using the public access computers, which can be reserved in advance. To use these computers, you will need a San Jose Public Library Card, which is available to any California resident.

If you are interested in checking out university-owned books, you can request Community User access through the San Jose Public Library.
