The Library Catalogue can be accessed from the Library Home Page . The keyword search facility is also useful to find information on a specific subject, e.g. to find information about teacher appraisal enter the words into the Keyword search option. Short loan books are kept behind the Issue Desk and are available for use in the Library only for up to 4 hours, or else overnight. An offprint contains a photocopy of an article taken from an issue of a periodical or a short excerpt from a book which is held in the Library of the University of Ulster. They may also be located through an author search in the name of the lecturer who placed them on Short Loan.
Offprints are strictly for use in the Library only.
These are indicated as Part-time loan in the catalogue and are kept behind the Issue Desk. The books may be borrowed for one week and renewed once if not requested by another user. Periodicals, which are sometimes known as journals or serials, can be identified by checking the Periodicals collection within the Library Catalogue. Normally, a search for the title of the periodical you are seeking will provide the required information. Choose Title Search , then select Periodicals from the collection menu and enter the journal title.
