We are pleased to provide our IWU alumni with a variety of library services. Alumni of IWU may request an IWU library courtesy card that allows for borrowing privileges, may request guest connection to the internet while visiting our campus, and receive professional assistance from our liaison librarians.
Due to licensing restrictions, alumni may not access our licensed electronic databases from off campus. There are a growing number of openly accessible scholarly resources that are available to researchers, and library staff will be glad to assist our alumni in their discovery and use.

So imagine Alice’s surprise when she comes to on the floor of a gym (agym! She HATES the gym) and is whisked off to the hospital where she discovers the honeymoon is truly over — she’s getting divorced, she has three kids, and she’s actually 39 years old.
