Subject Resources

S u b j e c t   A - Z

This section includes advice on both paper and electronic sources of information arranged by subject. All our electronic databases are listed in our database gateway MetaLib. The MetaLib CrossSearch facility allows you to search several databases simultaneously. Further information about MetaLib is available.

Ebrary is a collection of over 40,000 electronic books in all subjects that the library subscribes to. Further information about ebrary is available.

Although we have over 1 million books, there will be books you feel we ought to have for your studies. We devolve some of our budget to Schools/Departments who then decide what to buy. You can fill in this recommendation form which will be sent to the appropriate school/departmental representative who will decide whether to buy it or not.

If you are going to use either MetaLib or ebrary from off campus you should read our access guidance first.
