Access Mizzou Libraries—Anywhere, Anytime.
Lean Library is a free browser extension available to all current Mizzou students, faculty, and staff. Whether starting your research on Google Scholar, a publisher’s site, or anywhere else online, Lean Library helps you seamlessly connect to library resources—even when you’re off campus or not on Tiger WiFi.
Here’s how it works:
- Automatically checks if Mizzou Libraries has access to the article or book you’re viewing.
- Provides direct links to full-text content when available.
- Prompts you to log in using MU’s Single Sign-On (SSO)—just like email or Canvas.
Need something we don’t have?
Lean Library makes it easy to request articles and books through our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service—at no cost to you.
Getting started is easy:
Download the Lean Library extension, select the University of Missouri, Columbia, and start accessing library content wherever your research takes you.
