Welcome Students!

All ATU students can use ATU Library – your ATU ID card is your library card, you’ll get one when you’ve registered. Please carry it with you when you visit the Library.

Library staff are always available to help, whether it’s to find books and other materials or for assistance using our spaces or services. Help is provided on campus or online, just ask!

Your Library Account

You can easily manage your loans, check due dates, renew books, view your search and reading history, and place holds—all from your online Library Account. Simply log into ‘My Library Account’ using your ATU username and password.

Students have different borrowing privileges depending on their category. To ensure equitable access for all users, library books are not intended to be kept as personal copies. We kindly ask that books be returned promptly so others can browse and use them for learning and research.
