How to use LibrarySearch: Login

When to use LibrarySearch?

Use LibrarySearch or a database?

LibrarySearch provides a single access point to find articles in many, but not all of the library subscribed e-resources and research databases. If you need more specific information on a particular subject, it is better to search the library databases.

CUHK Login

LOGIN to a brand new LibrarySearch!

With the new LibrarySearch in place, CUHK Library adopts campus-wide single password, single login ID and single sign-on for services that require password login. All CUHK Library users including staff, students, alumni and other Library card holders will access online Library services through the same CUHK Login page.

 

IMPORTANT: Alumni users MUST change their password before first login to the new LibrarySearch. Please go to this page for further details: What is my login ID and password for library services?
