ELIN: for easy searching

The Library is very pleased to announce the launch of ELIN@Bath (Electronic Library Information Navigator). In ELIN, you can access a significant proportion of the Library's online articles, e-journals, e-books and databases from within the one user-friendly location.

ELIN can be accessed via the Library homepage at http://www.bath.ac.uk/library/ and at http://www.bath.ac.uk/library/elin/ ELIN will be trialled alongside the Library's existing web pages and catalogue for one year.

One of its main benefits is that you choose to only search for articles available in full text. This includes articles from journals to which the Library subscribes and open access journals. You can then follow a link to the full text.

In My Collection, you can save your search queries and results for retrieval at a later date. You can also receive email alerts when new articles are published that relate to your queries.

If you register with databases such as Web of Science and SportDiscus, you can also save searches for later retrieval and set up email alerts. For more information, check out the online guides for these resources on the Library webpages or contact P.G.Bradley@bath.ac.uk
