Using library links

Use our library links to e-journals, ebooks, and databases so that you can be authenticated as a current student, faculty, or staff member.

These links will take you first to a prompt to choose your login method. In almost every case, you will log in by choosing TSTC Login Connector.

Use your TSTC Email and Password

You will then be redirected to the familiar campus login page where you can login with your TSTC OneID.
