¹û¶³Ó°Ôº

Guidance for non-¹û¶³Ó°Ôº users on how to access ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº's electronic resources.

We have a number of Explore Access Points in ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº libraries, via which visitors can view many of our electronic resources. Explore is a one-stop service solution for the discovery and delivery of printed and electronic resources. You can search for material within a single resource or across a range of resources simultaneously. Please see our  for details.

Most resources are available to members of the Library who are not otherwise ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº students or staff. Restricted resources will present a ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº login box.

We advise visitors to bring an unencrypted USB storage device with them if they plan to use e-resources. Devices containing encrypted software cannot be used on the Explore Access Points. Subject to copyright restrictions (see ), users may save copies of documents, but there are no visitor printing facilities.

Please note, ejournals which have the note ‘Special username and password required for access’ or ‘Available only to ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº students and staff’ are not available on Explore Access Points.Ìý
