Hi all.

I hope to embark on an MA tesol soon with a non-Korean university.
The thing is, I really want to be able to access a good selection of books from a university in Seoul or Suwon if I'm to do this degree. I don't think online journal access will be enough.

So, does anyone have experience in negotiating book access (borrowing) from a Korean university as a non-student of that university?

Thanks in advance for replies.

I posted the same question hera about a week ago. weird.

Anyway, I think it's difficult. If not impossible.

If you can get a Korean professor to vouch for you, you may be able to get a "community member" library card at a national university.

I contacted SNU library.

There is a system to allow non-students book access.

I believe I would fall into the category of academic researcher thus allowing 5 books for 30 days. Yearly fee 100,000w.
