Want a quick, easy search? Coming soon from the Library...MetaLib!


In the few weeks the Library will be introducing a new search tool called MetaLib. This will allow you to cross-search the key collections in your chosen subject area in one quick and easy search. You will just need to login to EZproxy with your MWS username and password, type in your search, choose the collection you want to search, and from your search results you should be able to link to the full text document if it's available from the Library.

You will also be able to cross-search e-book collections, newspapers, official publications, theses and dissertations, dictionaries & encyclopedias.

Of course you will still be able to search the native interfaces of Library databases if you prefer to or if you want to do more advanced searches.

Watch this space for further announcements....
