Effective immediately, UML has a new way to access and download LexiComp Mobile (available via app). In past years, applicants would have to submit a paper application and wait a day or two to verify that they were entitled to access. Users will now be able to get immediate access to the app provided they are affiliated with UM and use their UM email address (umanitoba.ca OR myumanitoba.ca). 

There may be a lot of questions about this at the desk or via VR as the 2019 licenses are due to expire shortly. As we still only have a limited number of licenses we are not advertising it broadly as we now do not have a way to verify whether they are health sciences people, but info and instructions are available on our Apps page (https://libguides.lib.umanitoba.ca/c.php?g=297748&p=1990907). The licenses are still only valid for 1-year and only one device per email address will be allowed.

If you have any questions let me know.
