Library Resources
During your course of studies (both here in the States and in China) you will have access to a collection of over 9,000 periodicals and journals, many in full text, online. Your Banner ID (an E followed by eight numbers) plus your WebCT password will give you access to the data bases. The URL for the library is www.cui.edu/library.
Below are directions for use of the online library resources. They are also in printed form in a booklet you will (or did) receive at your library orientation.

You may want to start with learning Academic Search Premier since it covers the widest assortment of periodicals and journals. If you need guidance using the resources of the online data bases, please email librarian@cui.edu or call (949) 214-3096.
