The Subject LibGuides have been updated to ensure that all the links are working and all the books listed are their most recent edition, meaning they are better than ever! Each LibGuide has been tailored to a specific subject, meaning that the information is specialised to what you are looking for. This is where you can be directed to and book a meeting with your subject librarian, find out about which books you should read, referencing help, and much more! If you are struggling with referencing, assignments, or your dissertation, this is the place to go. The LibGuides are very easy to use, with clear signposting and information layout.

We are very sad to have said goodbye to a valued member of the Academic Engagement Team, Connie Davage. Connie joined our team back in 2018 and brought her wealth of experience from the Library Service Desk Team to combine this role with supporting the team wherever needed. Connie also supported the Lifelong Learning Department and will be greatly missed by all the staff in the Department.

Many colleagues across the University have been helped by Connie over the years, from Aspire Reading List support, to digitisation requests to valuable library support.

We would like to wish Connie all the best in her new librarian role at the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David and thank her for being a fantastic colleague, star baker and friend to everyone in the team.

We’ve been subscribing to a great resource affectionately known as ‘LISA’ for many years. This resource has been invaluable to Information Studies students and staff for many years.
LISA (Library & Information Science Abstracts) helps to focus searching for international scholarly literature on library and information science. However, as suggested by the name it is an abstract service only.
We are really pleased to announce that we now have access to the ‘Library & Information Science Collection”. This new collection now searches our much loved LISA, as well as the Library Science Full Text Database.
In summary we now have over 300 full text journal titles included when you search the ‘Library & Information Science Collection’.
