Borrow from other libraries in Maine: MaineCat

Go to MaineCat

MaineCat allows you to search for and request more than 8 million books, DVDs, CDs and more from public and academic libraries across the state of Maine. The lending library sends your requested items to the UNE campus of your choice, and you return these items to the UNE Libraries.

  2. Click “request this item.”
  3. Select “University of New England” from the dropdown menu when asked to “Choose your Home Library”, and click “Submit.”
  4. Enter your full name (first last). Use either your UNE ID card number or PRN as your “Library Card #”
  5. Choose the UNE campus library where you would like to pick this item up and click “Submit.”
