About Government Resources at Wright State

The University Libraries participate in the Federal Depository Library Program.  Government resources received through the program are available for free use by all members of the general public. Federal Depository Library Program logo

Some materials are available for in-library use only, but many items may be checked out by library users who have a borrower's card. Electronic products not supported in the Libraries can be used by making arrangements through the Information Desk.

 Access to government publications on the internet is available to community users of the University Libraries. On presentation of identification, any user may receive a password that allows him or her to use the internet on workstations within the Dunbar Libray. Passwords are in effect for 24 hours, and there is no limit to the number of times a user may register.

Information about the University Libraries' accomodations under the ADA can be found in Services to Persons with Disabilities.
