UCI’s media reserves, media collection, and loanable technology equipment have moved to new locations. Starting in fall 2023, technology equipment can be borrowed on a first-come, first-served basis from the Science Library or Langson Library Check Out Desks. Equipment available for loans includes tablets, PCs, audio-visual equipment (microphones, cameras, etc.), and device-charging accessories. Items are available for check out with a valid UCI student, faculty or staff ID and active UCInetID.

UCI students, faculty, and staff now have access to the The HistoryMakers, the nation’s largest African American oral history video collection. UCI Libraries’ three-year subscription to the online oral history archive includes nearly 150,000 stories assembled from the interviews of 2,708 historically significant African Americans. 

This Hispanic Heritage Month, UCI Libraries is spotlighting some of its relevant resources and collections. Find films, books, and research guides as well as archival items for your celebrations, academic studies, and/or learning. Unless they specify a UCI login, these materials are generally available year-round to the public at no cost.

Enjoy the summer with UCI Libraries! Resources continue to be available for UCI affiliates (students, staff, and faculty) on and off campus.

Established in 2017 to commemorate the UCI Libraries Southeast Asian Archive’s 30th anniversary, the Southeast Asian Archive Anne Frank Visiting Researcher Award is given annually to an individual researcher who lives outside of Orange County. Named in honor of Anne Frank, the archive’s founding librarian who retired in 2007, the $1,000 award is intended to defray the cost of traveling to Irvine, California to conduct hands-on research within the archive.
