New Trial

We have just arranged a trial to Cinema Image Gallery, this resource is advertised as one of the world's finest and most comprehensive still image archives of film, television and entertainment history. It has coverage starting from the latter part of the 19th century and features links to biographies and other related articles.


You shouldn't need to log on to use this resource on-campus, just click on Cinema Image Gallery. If you are off-campus the UserID and password are as follows:

Go Mobile

A couple of our electronic resource providers have created moblie versions of their search interfaces:

Ebscohost provide a number of our journals databases such as Academic Search Complete and Business Source Complete - you can get through to the full text of article using the mobile version.

IEEE Xplore delivers full text access to the world's highest quality technical literature in electrical engineering, computer science, and electronics - the mobile version gives you 10 articles for your search, you can read the abstracts and are able to email a link to the full article to yourself.

Both mobile versions are available from the Database A-Z and should work on most mobile devices.

Try them out and let us know what you think.
