Q. I am studying an Online Programme and need help searching for E-Books

To request changes please contact the Librarian for Online Programmes (PC 01/09/21).

​To search for E-Books, log into the Library for Online Programmes using your University login.

You can search across our E-Book subscriptions using either our multi-source Library Search. This platform include both downloadable/ printable PDFs which you can save to your PC and some E-Books which cannot be downloaded or printed fully and must usually be viewed within the provider's Web site.

You can access Library Search from the homepage or E-Resources page of the Library for Online Programmes. You can refine your search using checkboxes shown near the right of the search box. You can refine your search to E-Books using the 'E-Books' (only) checkbox , you can search by title (rather than keywords) by selecting the 'Search by Title' checkbox.

You can also search E-Book collections individually (such as Springer) from the E-Resources area of the Library for Online Programmes (then see the E-Books page).

If you wish to visit a particular E-Book where you know the publication details, you can perform a ‘Search by title’ using the large Library Search search box shown on the homepage.

For further help using E-Books, please see our E-Books tutorials and guides.

We provide a dedicated E-Learning Librarian to assist you in using Library resources. If you have any problems using the Library or technical problems, please see the Support area of the Library for Online Programmes. Also see our guides, videos, tutorials and Library Training Module available via the Library for Online Programmes.
