•   Attend class and do assignments on your schedule. Each course has a real instructor who you may communicate with using email.
•   These are non-credit courses and are provided for your personal enrichment. These courses are not intended to be a substitute for any state, government, licensing, or educational requirements.  Some classes can quality for Continuing Ed. credits.

Universal Class is offered at no cost to all Vermont Public Libraries beginning on September 1, 2011 by the Vermont Department of Libraries All citizens of Vermont who have access to the services of a public library are eligible to use this online learning resource for free in the library or from remote sites.

I tried to log into the website link. It asked for our library card number, which I entered but it did not accept it. Is there another number that we should use to gain access to this?  Thanks!

Yes, please use:

2VSOG00000 + your 4 digit library card number

Example:  2VSOG000009555

It has to be 14 digits long.  VSOG are all letters, then 5 zeros.

Have fun!

These courses are FREE to our patrons.  You must log in through the VT Dept. of Library link to access the account that is set up for Vermonters.  If you go directly to Universal Class's website you see the info for individual subscribers.
