Answer by Librarian

Anyone with an Internet connection can reach Falvey Memorial Library's homepage, from an off-campus site, to search the library's online catalog, as well as access other libraries and universities catalogs, and the many World Wide Web search engines.Due to licensing restrictions, only Villanova students, faculty and staff can connect from an off-campus site to databases.
