Alumni Services

We invite alumni to continue to participate actively in the University of Rochester community and to rely on our services.

As a graduate of the University of Rochester, you have virtual access to many on-campus libraries, their respective collections, and several premium library databases. Accessing the premium databases (JSTOR, Mergent Online, Proquest Alumni Edition, and Sage Journals) and other resources requires you to log in using your alumni directory username and password. The databases are accessed through the Alumni Library Gateway.

If you don’t have this set up already, you can create a new login account by emailing alumni@rochester.edu.

Please include:

• Your name—include maiden or former names
• Mailing address
• Class year
• School(s) from which you received your degree

You may continue to use and borrow print books from River Campus Libraries with an Alumni ID card. Cards may be obtained free of charge from the River Campus ID office located in the Customer Service Center on the first floor of Susan B. Anthony Hall. For hours of operation, please call (585) 275.3975. For library-related questions, please email ask@library.rochester.edu.

Less than 5 Years Post-Graduation 
Recent graduates and young alumni can meet with a Warner career professional via Zoom for career consultations regarding their application materials, job search strategies, workplace concerns, and other questions.
