Collections Update

Collections Update 

A number of Library subscriptions will not be renewed for this coming academic year. This includes print and electronic journals, databases and memberships.

These decisions have been made in consultation with academic colleagues, based on a thorough evaluation of usage data, use within the curriculum and potential value to research.

Our aim has been to minimise any potential impact and inconvenience, alongside carefully scrutinising the value for money of each of our subscriptions.

A list of subscriptions that will not be renewed is available below, and an indicator Resource update icon will be placed next to affected databases on the A-Z Databases page, with information about the date on which access to the resource ends.

In many instances, the same or similar content will still be provided via a different subscription or in an alternative format. These have been indicated below. Where there is no alternative, an Inter Library Loan may be possible.

 

Support

If resources that you use are affected by this, and you would like help with finding alternative resources available from the library or open access, please contact your Academic Subject Librarian.

If you have further queries about the rationale of the cost saving process, please contact Liz Mallett, Assistant Director: Academic and Research Services.

Databases

Details of expiry dates for these titles will be given on the relevant entry on the A-Z Databases page.
