[10.01.11] Access to resources: changes

Today, Monday 10th January 2011, we will be making some changes to the way users log in to access library resources.

These changes may result in very short term down time for specific resources. If you are unable to access a resource at any time on Monday 11th, please try again before contacting Library and Information Services.

These changes will result in visual changes to the login box. You can see a preview of the page here. Your username and password will remain the same.

We appreciate your patience as we make this transition, and encourage you to contact us on libraryqueries@yorksj.ac.uk with any feedback or comments you might have, or if you continue to experience problems after Monday 11th January.

We will post updates to this blog as we have them.

New database subscription – Literary Resource Center

Library and Information Services now subscribes to the Literary Resource Center, a comprehensive database that combines information from over 1,000 books and monographs, major literary encyclopedias and reference works, hundreds of literary journals, and unique sources not available anywhere else.

This subscription replaces our subscription to LION, and the Literary Resource Center provides additional material, including full text content.

The database is available from the Library website, and off-campus users may access it using an Athens username and password.
