British Standards Online

Just to update you all on the progress of the British Standards Online access. The database is now accessible through our databases pages: http://www.uel.ac.uk/lls/resources/databaselistb.htm
I am working to make the database available through our Athens log in. I am hoping this will be available shortly. I will keep you all posted.

New resources

Dear all,
We now have access to the British Standards Online. We are working to get it accessible through your Athens login, however at the moment it is only accessible through the following link: https://bsol.bsigroup.com/en/BsolHomePage/
Thank you, to all of the lecturers that came to the training on the 18th Sept, I hope that you found it useful.
Another resource that I just wanted to draw your attention to is an open access repository called ROSE. It is run by the University of Bristol and seems to have a good collection of Engineering Mathematics and Electrical and Electronic engineering materials. You need to submit your e-mail address to get access, but it is very simple to access. Please take a look: http://rose.bris.ac.uk/dspace/

Reading Lists

Hi all,
The new budgets have now been released and I can now start to order books into the library. I know that I have had some requests already, but I would be grateful if you could start to send over your reading lists for modules to me. I will start to cross check what we have in stock and order appropriately.
If you would like to review the stock in your area, then please feel free to come into the library and see me.
Thank you!
