Virtual Services
Even if you do not come to the main campus of SUNY Canton, you may still use the Library's services. A login page will usually appear when first using a research database. This will be your NetID and password issued by SUNY Canton. From the Library website at you can:
Get eBooks
- Southworth Library has access to over 150,000 eBooks. Just use ROOsearch to search your subject, look for the 'Available Online' below a result, and access the full-text of the book from your computer or device.
- To limit your search to just eBooks, select 'eBooks' from the "Source Types" filter on the left.
- As a SUNY Canton student you also have access to almost 3,000 eBooks and audiobooks through Libby. To access Libby, use your NetID and password
- Browse new and popular books in our Collections.
Get Articles
- Use any of the databases to find either full-text or a description of an article in journal, magazine or newspaper.
- Check out our Research Guides for your specific curricular area, or browse the A to Z list of Databases or the Databases by Subject guides.
