How can it help you?
You can use Library Search to:

  • Search for information to support your course

There is a simple search box for you to enter your search terms.You can then use the filter options on the left-hand-side to focus/refine your search. For example you can focus by:
  • Library
  • Material Type
  • Subject
  • Collection / Provider

How do you access it?
You can search on Library Search without logging in. The link to it is on the Health Library home page. However you will need to log in to online resources to access the full-text.

More Help?
