You can search Eagle Search without signing in. There are some added benefits to signing in, however. If you do sign in, the system does a check in real time to see how long you will be able to check an item out.

Some features such as placing a request, placing an interlibrary loan request through the statewide UBorrow service, accessing your Library Card, and accessing online articles/eBooks/videos require you to log in. The catalog/discovery tool is integrated with each institution’s single sign on system and if you are logged in already, you should be seamlessly logged in to the discovery tool. If you’re not logged into the discovery tool, use the Sign in link in the top right.

An option to sign in also appears under the search box and on the full record page of each search result.

If you are faculty, staff or a student use the first field, labeled SSO. This will prompt you to use your FGCU email and password to sign in.
