In addition to the news that MiFi units have been installed in all our University libraries, allowing you to access WiFi on your own devices, we are pleased to be able to share the following updates regarding our online library systems.   

 

Access to the majority of Library online resources (ebooks, ejournals, databases) has now been restored for students and staff. You can access the resources directly or through LibrarySearch. Reading Lists on Canvas are not yet available for students to access, so please use alternative routes to access your resources.  

As previously, you will need your university IT account to log-in to the resources but you may notice a few differences in how the log-in screen looks. You may also need to use MFA (multi-factor authentication).   

A small number of resources remain inaccessible and some features on LibrarySearch are not yet restored. We are working on these as a priority and hope to continue to improve your access over the coming days. 

If you need help please contact the Library via Library ASSIST, staff will be available on live chat 24/7 to help you access the resources you need.   

For more IT systems recovery updates, take a look at our FAQs webpage. 

For more information please contact the Corporate Communications Team.
