Making the most of our Book Collection

Are you making the most of our book collection to find the information you need?

We have a range of short etutorials to help you to get to the book you need quickly.

Start by learning to use the catalogue to help you to find books on your topic or to get the book on your reading list.

Our Find a Book on the Shelf etutorial helps you to use that shelfmark code to get to the book you want.

Make sure that you are using books effectively to avoid wasting time – our Using a Book etutorial points you to the sections of a book to check to get to information quickly.

And finally we know that many of our books are very popular and sometimes you have to wait until a copy becomes available; but why not try our online ebooks? Our etutorial Using eBooks shows you how to find ebooks and access them. eBooks are available 24/7 and you don’t incur any fines.
