When LibKey is set up on an electronic device and you’re browsing specific databases, or doing web browser searches, it will check if the AUArts Library has a subscription, or access to the resource you’ve located.

LibKey ensures that AUArts library subscriptions are automatically recognized, making it easier for students and faculty to get access to materials needed for assignments and research.

NOTE: If you’re searching for materials off campus, remember to sign into the Library Primo app at https://myapps.microsoft.com/
