Close to 40% of our print collections are now available through Hathi Trust Emergency Temporary Access.

Books and journal volumes currently available to you through the Emergency Temporary Access Service have the label “Log in for temporary access”

• After connecting to Hathi Trust from the list, scroll down to see the “Temporary Access” link.

Then Check Out the item you need.  If you connect from the links within a single CLIO record, you will be taken directly to the Check Out screen.  If you do not see the Check Out option, Log in in the upper right corner.

 

• “Temporary Access” volumes are intended to be read online, though it is possible to download single pages.  Downloading of single pages has been discontinued by Hathi Trust. 
  
• These links appear only in the CLIO records for physical books and journals.  If you limit a search to “online” you will not see these links.
• Students, staff, and faculty are able to “check out” a volume for 1 hour.  Access will renew automatically at the end of that hour, unless another user has requested the title.  Only one person may use a volume at a time.  Please “return” titles when not in use.  The number of simultaneous users per title is limited to the number of physical copies we own.
• If you do not see the “check out” box, you may need to log in first, selecting Columbia University as your home institution.
