New Library Web Pages

The new Library home page is at https://portal.abertay.ac.uk/portal/page/portal/Library

Once there, you can link to various content-rich pages, including Subject Guides, which bring together all your key electronic resources, websites and other useful resources and guidance.

If you are looking for a specific named journal, the quickest route is to click on 'Find a journal' from the Library home page.

Some of the library web pages are still under construction: please be patient as we fill in the gaps. We are grateful for any feedback on problems, typos etc. As you know, we have also recently switched over from Athens to Shibboleth authentication, so please do report any difficulties you experience when accessing electronic resources, as there may be multiple factors involved!

Welcome

A very warm welcome to all summer school and pre-sessional students arriving this week. We hope you find everything you need in the Library, but please ask at the Enquiry Desk if you have any questins. We look forward to working with you.

Changes to login procedures

From 1st August, The University has switched its login method for library databases, electronic journals and books from the old Athens system to a new product known as UK federation or Shibboleth. You will continue to use your Abertay username and password to access resources. Further details and guidance on how to use the new system can be found at:

If you experience or have any questions regarding the change then please contact us on Infodesk@abertay.ac.uk or (01382 308899)
