What's new?

I've started this blog as a practice really, but with the aim of adding bits and pieces of useful information about library and IT stuff at Abertay which I think will be particularly relevant to students and staff in the School of Social and Health Sciences.

Electronic books

Have you checked out ebrary - a collection of over 25000 electronic books? You can link to it from the Library catalogue at http://catalogue.abertay.ac.uk or through the Virtual Library at http://vlib.abertay.ac.uk . You can search the full text of all the books simultaneously.
