Preparing for your summer project - drop in Library help in the eLibrary
Now that exams are over, work can begin in earnest on your summer project. To help you with the literature searching and retrieval process, the Library will be running a series of drop-in sessions.
These sessions will run from 14:00-17:00 every Wednesday afternoon from 23 June to 28 July in the e-library (the glass computer room next to the Manson Lecture Theatre). Each session will be staffed by a member of the Library training team.
Just come down to the eLibrary at any time during the afternoon to ask your queries.
If you have a number of queries or if your queries are complex, we may recommend you arrange a one-to-one appointment with a member of Library staff instead. These can be arranged during the drop-in sessions.

NEW - Document Delivery service - Let the Library come to you
Are you a student or member of overseas staff?
Could you benefit from increased access to Library services whilst working remotely?
Would you find it useful to have journal articles and book chapters delivered to you directly?
If yes, then the Library’s new Document Delivery Service is the answer.
From Monday 21st of June the service will be available to all students and overseas staff. We can make life easier by sending you journal articles and book chapters directly, wherever you are in the world. If you need a book chapter or journal article that is not part of Library collections, we can send this to you direct. Students and staff working overseas can also order photocopies of material from the Library’s print collections. If you are a UK-based student we cannot send you photocopies of Library resources. However, you will be able to use academic libraries local to you by joining the SCONUL Access Scheme.
There are a number of direct delivery options for you to choose from including email, post or fax.
We will invoice students for the items they have been sent in September 2010. Each item will cost £2.00 for students.
Staff requests will be charged at full cost to a departmental or grant code, with authorised signature.
The service will be available from 21st June and you will need to register to make requests.
