That is a nice perk... particularly considering you didn't even have to earn a degree to get access to that.
WGU alumni retain access to WGU's digital library as well, which also includes access to a lot of publications and papers. But you have to graduate to get it.

Interesting/strange, I was wondering, don't all schools provide some type of Digital Library Access now? Weird, I haven't used the one provided by TESU, but I assume we have access to it until we graduate right? As I transferred everything into TESU (yes, including the BSBA Capstone, I did the TECEP/Penn Foster course), I haven't really needed that access, but if we do have that as a student of TESU for taking a tecep/class, I might need to dig into that further...

Since TESU and NJ State Library are affiliated, TESU directs students to use the NJSL resources. Library access provides all sorts of cool online services (including all the research tools you could need), plus you can borrow books (and have them shipped to you) and such too.
Assuming you're an active (enrolled) student, all you have to do is register for a library card (which gets sent to you via USPS) and use the code on the back to unlock access to the online resources. They will send you a temporary code via email while you wait for the card to arrive.
However, you lose access to the library shortly after your active student status expires (which also happens when you graduate). I was hoping access would have been retained as an alumni perk, but alas that is not the case. I still have my library card though.

Cool, I knew I had access while attending. I didn't know I would still get continued access after graduating. Thanks for mentioning that.

CSU Global has a digital library. I know you have access as a student, but I don't know if you lose it after you leave or graduate. I haven't found one for UMPI. I probably should ask. It's not been brought up in anything I've read.
