Quick Tips to Access e-Resources

E-Resources
(Issue 141/February 2020)

Do you know, over 90% of Library collections are available online? While you are away from the campus, you can still access a tremendous amount of e-Resources (over 500,000 e-Books and 101,000 e-Journals) anywhere via EZProxy.

In SearchPlus, ‘Tweak my results’ is a useful feature to refine your search results. To show e-Resources only, you can simply click ‘Full Text Online’ under ‘Availability’. (Note: ‘Available in the Library’ will limit results to print items only.)
