Udemy

Udemy is a new online resource that was made available to library patrons in February 2026. Udemy is a learning platform that offers a wide range of courses for learners. Whether you want to learn a new language, learn to write code, pick up some soft skills for a new management role, or just learn to play the piano, you can find it on Udemy. With over 25,000 on-demand videos, we hope you find something that you’re excited about.

Some of Udemy’s features include courses in other languages that aren’t just translated but instead are taught by subject experts in the field. Udemy has a new role-play AI tool that allows you to conduct a mock interview or practice speaking skills with feedback on how to reach your goals.

This resource is great for those who are 13 years old and older and can be accessed for free until January 2028. Homeschoolers will find courses that may get them excited about continuing education, small business owners will find resources to grow and expand their small business, and best of all, you can find the best course for you to learn at your own pace on your own time. To get started, check our Technology page under Research and Learn to find out more or look under Online Resources under the letter U for a direct link and information about the Udemy App, which will allow to you to take your learning with you on the go.
