As a member of HathiTrust, Laurentian offers temporary online access to over 120,000 in-copyright books from our collection.
Please note:
- If a book is temporarily available through HathiTrust, you cannot request it for curbside pickup. If you do request a book available through HathiTrust, don’t worry, we’ll let you know!
- The check out period is one hour but automatically renews if you remain active, unless someone else is trying to access it.
- You cannot download a book.
- The number of copies in our print collection matches the number of copies available online. If Laurentian owns 1 print copy, only 1 user can access the book at a time.
