Searching for information

Discover allows you to search in one place for books, e-books, journal articles, theses, digital media and more. To learn how to develop your search skills to make the most of Discover and the individual resources available, enrol on the Canvas Library Skills course. There are also videos, guides and online tutorials which you can access by selecting the links below.

Detailed information about which resources to use for your subject is available on our Subject Guides page. All subjects have a Librarian who can provide help and guidance on developing your searching and referencing skills. You can book also onto one of our workshops.
