Register to receive Library Flexible Services

To be eligible to receive services for flexible learning students, you must be currently enrolled in at least one Faculty of Education flexible module. If you have used services for flexible learning students previously, you may need to re-register to receive Library services in subsequent semesters.

How to Register

Once you have enrolled, complete the online application form to register with the Library Flexible Service (selecting 'Education' as your faculty). We will confirm your status by email shortly. If you have any problems registering, please email Bryony Sinclair, or epsom.library@auckland.ac.nz, including your full name and student ID number. Once your registration has been confirmed, you may begin using the online requesting service.

Accessing Library Electronic Resources from your home or office

The University of Auckland Library website gives you access to a wide range of services and electronic resources, such as Library Search, databases, e-books, e-journals, e-theses, and exam papers.

To access these electronic resources from off-campus (e.g. your computer at home or work), log in with your NetID and NetPassword. Your NetID and NetPassword will have been provided in your letter of enrolment. To obtain a new NetPassword, flexible learning students may email the Information Commons Helpdesk at onelogon@auckland.ac.nz - you will need to supply your full name, NetID, student ID number, date of birth, home address, and current course(s) you are enrolled in (or programme of study). View more information about your NetAccount.

Many electronic publications are published as Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files. To view and print PDF files you may download a free copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader.
