Myth 2: Access to academic sources is always very expensive!

Effectively searching for literature

In last week's video, you learnt why you should use academic search engines instead of simply googling. In most cases, accessing the sources you need costs a lot of money. However, the Learning Centre have purchased licenses for a whole range of literature, allowing members of the university to access to thousands of e-books and articles from academic journals.

In this video, we explain which search tools the Learning Centre offers and where you can search to effectively find high-quality subject-specific literature.

You can access our search instruments using the following links:

Library Catalogue
EDDI Discovery System
Databases (DBIS)

You can find all the important information about VPN here.

Over the next few weeks, we will debunk several common myths about searching for literature as well as introducing you step-by-step to the research process.
