Other relevant subject guides
This guide covers the core resources you need for day-to-day study and research. However, you may sometimes find other subject guides useful for specialised topics. You can find a full list of other guides on the Library Gateway, but some useful guides are:
Maths Help
If you need any help with the mathematical content of your course, a series of maths help sessions are held during term time in the learning centres: there is no need to book, just turn up. They are held in:
- Adsetts Learning Centre, level 5 (Arundel Gate end of the building)
11.30am-1.30pm every week day - Collegiate Learning Centre (by the journals)
6pm-8pm Monday and Tuesday
Where are my databases?
If you were used to using Litsearch last year, you now access all your databases via the subject guides.
The databases are divided up by the tabs on the top of the page, based on type of material they contain.
Databases for journal, conference and newspaper articles are under the tab 'Finding articles'; databases for ebooks are under the tab 'Books & ebooks'; and so on.
If you know the name of the database which you want, you can also find it on the A-Z list on the Library Gateway.
Library Search
Library Search searches for books, ebooks, ejournals, journal articles, DVDs, online video and other resources available in the Learning Centres. It is usually a good place to start searching.
If you can't find what you want on Library Search, try one of the other resources in this guide.
Develop your search skills
re: Search is an online tutorial to help you search information more quickly and effectively, and to find the best and most relevant material for your assignments. It is available in a series of bite-size units.
If you are carrying out advanced research, you may find the Research subject guide useful.
