PIVOT

Pivot is an online subscription database that is available to all faculty, staff, and students in the Swarthmore community. It is a powerful search tool designed to find funding opportunities across disciplines, career stages, geographic regions, funder types, and purposes (e.g., research, pilot projects, travel, curriculum development, conference grants, supplements).

Users can access Pivot one of two ways:

  1. IP Access: Use Pivot from any on-campus computer on the College’s network or off-campus when logged into VPN.
  2. Single Sign On (SSO) Access: log in with your Swarthmore username and password.

 

Take advantage of Pivot’s video tutorials and LibGuide to learn more about its benefits and features.
