I have finished my course. Can I carry on using the Library?
You can continue to use the Library's search engine to consult content that is published in open access.
UOC Alumni can also continue to benefit from many of the Library's services.
Please note that some Library content, databases and platforms have a limited number of user licences, and priority access is reserved for educational purposes. This is why you can only consult them while you are a student at the UOC.
