Getting Access to Online Journals

If you are having problems getting into journals or databases

 

  •  Are you entering your username instead of your university email address.  Our systems use your  university email address
  •  Double check on the library catalogue that we have access to the resource - watch the video above.
  •  Check on the library catalogue that the article falls within the subscription period we have access to - is it too old or too new.  The record will tell you.  If so consider an inter-library loan.
  •  Contact CHAT or me.
