HeinOnline provides access to the following:

• The Law Journal Library, a collection of more than 1,900 law and law- related periodicals. Coverage is from the first issue published for all periodicals and goes through the most current issue allowed, based on contracts with publishers. Searching can be done by title or author name, as well as full-text searching of the collection or select periodicals.
• All 176 volumes of the English Reports, Full Reprint along with its “Index of Cases” and “Index Chart”. This collection encompasses the decisions of the English Courts prior to the commencement of the Law Reports in 1865. It represents reprints of 275 separate series of reports, arranged by the English Courts: House of Lords, Chancery, Rolls Court, etc. The English Reports, Full Reprint contains over 100,000 cases reprinted verbatim and spans the years 1220 to 1867.

For help with using these or any databases, please contact your subject librarian. Or, see the Business & Law Librarians’ blogs for tips on using specialist business and legal databases.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

It prints up to size A0 posters in full, high-quality colour, at a flat cost of £3 per poster. Just select the catchily-named ASCPRINT/PullPlotterGCW from any computer in the GCW. Library staff can advise on the most appropriate printer settings for your files.

From Monday, 30 January 2012, until the end of the current term:

• The Library will open at 08.00 Monday-Friday (instead of 08.30)
• On Saturdays, we’ll open at 09.00 (instead of 10.00)
• On Sundays we’ll open at 09.00 (instead of 12.00)
• Desk services will also start earlier at the weekends, at 09.15

This takes our total opening hours to 106 hours/week in term time, or 146 hours/week during 24-hour opening. (This compares well with other universities’ library opening hours. Three universities selected at random on the web had term-time opening hours for their main academic library of 135, 108½, and 100 hours per week.)

You can find our new opening hours on the University Portal.

Communication and Mass Media Complete is useful for searching journal articles on communication, film studies, language, journalism, TV, radio, advertising and PR.

However, please be aware that the “Log in” option on the A-to-Z may still return the following error:

Sorry, an error occurred while processing your request.
