The Reference Online Center (ROC) Lab

The Reference Online Center (ROC) Lab is adjacent to the Reference Desk. This lab provides 24 computers for research: searching of reference online databases, the Library Catalog, and U.S. Government Information resources. Word processing and ChemDraw software are also available. Student Technology Enhancement Program (STEP) fees provide printing availability for current University students.

Off-campus access is available for the majority of our online resources and databases 24/7 to current University students, faculty, and staff.

For assistance, contact the Reference Desk at (337) 482-6030, email reference@louisiana.edu, or use the 'Got Questions? Ask Us!' box to chat.

Database Use: Electronic databases are limited to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette authorized users (students, faculty, and staff). Users attempting to access library databases both on and off campus will be required to log in with their ULID and password. Users must follow 'Fair Use' as outlined in U.S. Copyright Law and provisions of license agreements with individual providers. Online database material obtained must be used for personal, non-commercial purposes. Improper use generally includes, but is not limited to, utilizing robots/auto crawlers, downloading entire eJournals, printing numerous copies of a single article, or publishing articles made available through the databases. Unauthorized use of Dupré Library databases and other electronic resources can result in revocation of access. For questions about use, contact the Reference Desk at (337) 482-6030, email reference@louisiana.edu, or use the 'Got Questions? Ask Us!' box to chat.

Database Accessibility: EBSCO, one of the library's major database providers, is committed to providing positive experiences for all users. They have provided an EBSCO Accessibility – Navigation Guide and an EBSCO eBook Accessibility User Guide and FAQs for using their databases.
