Primo is the library's discovery & delivery tool. Primo All Search allows users to simultaneously search across, and quickly access, the Library's multiple electronic and print resources. Users can initiate searches by entering search terms into the 'Search Anything' search box. 

Use the search box to:

• Search Catalog for physical and electronic resources that the library purchased
• Articles by titles or subject
• All Resources for everything (some resources may need to be ordered)

The Sign in link is available at the top-right corner of Primo search and results pages.

Please note that before you can login to Primo, you must have a registered and active account.

Register here and allow 24 hours for the information to be processed, or come into the library and register at the Circulation Desk.
