How can I maintain my access to library resources as a PhD student?
I am a Ph.D. student at WSU, doing research towards the completion of my dissertation. How can I maintain my access to library resources?
Answer
According the the WSU graduate school, to maintain access to library resources, Ph.D. students should be enrolled in one of the following courses while doing research towards completion of their dissertation: • Doctoral Candidate Status I-IV: Dissertation Research and Direction (courses numbered 9991-9994 in each department), or • Candidate Maintenance Status: Doctoral Dissertation Research and Direction (course number 9995 in each department).

NOTE: Prior to candidate status, registration of at least one graduate credit is required in all semesters in which the Ph.D. student uses university resources.
