Today thus far, our library Catalog HOMER is back up but you will experience some slowness in searches and logins. We are still working hard to bring HOMER back to its full capacity. Remember as an alternative try using the State-wide library catalog reQuest or Worldcat. You can run searches for an author/keyword/title/subject, to find out if the UCONN libraries has your item.
You are still able to make Interlibrary Loan and InterCampus requests by using the Libraries online loan request form on the DD-ILL page. Don’t forget to include a call number and the campus location of the title needed.

You will need your One Card to charge out books, retreive Reserve materials, Printing and Photocopy at the Library.
HOMER, the library catalog is currently unavailable today. We are working to get the problem fixed soon. In the meantime, use the Statewide-wide, CT Library Catalog -ICONN to search for books and Worldcat to submit request until the problem with our catalog is resolved.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
