Online library - help and guidance: About electronic resources

The best way to search our databases is to use the search option in our library catalogue.

You need to select "E-journals" from the drop-down menu.

Our Subject Guides also recommend databases relevant to your subject area and all of our databases are listed in our A-Z list.

Databases may have the full-text of journal articles or just abstracts or references to them. If we have do have the full text of the article available in another database or journal you can find it using the ‘Is Newman full-text available?’ link.
