Ebrary's interface has been upgraded

Ebrary (an electronic book collection) has a new interface, so you may notice some changes when looking at their online books. Although you can now browse books without needing to use the Ebrary reader, we recommend you install the reader to have fuller access. Note that the Reader is already automatically installed on all Unitec machines. You can find Ebrary books via the Unitec Library Catalogue or by going to the library's Online Resources, Databases A-Z, and clicking on Ebrary. If you have any questions, please contact the library - phone 815 4321, ext. 8564 or email libinfo@unitec.ac.nz.

Rehabilitation Reference Center trial

The Library is trialling Rehabilitation Reference Center, an evidence-based full-text database. Designed for physical therapists, occupational therapists and other rehabilitation professionals, RRC provides the best available, most accurate and concise information on conditions seen in rehabilitation practice, allowing rehabilitation specialists to build customized treatment regimens for patients at the point-of-care.

Please send any feedback to libinfo@unitec.ac.nz

Emerald problem

The "Email this page" function in the Emerald database is currently not functioning properly. If you try to use it an error message appears.

You can still email a page by copying the URL of the page you want from the address bar and sending it in an email message.

Emerald expects the problem to be fixed early in the New Year.

Library summer hours

From Saturday 22 November, Unitec Library will be open for reduced hours over Summer. Except for Waitakere Joint Library we will not be open for evenings and weekends.

New Library computer system

The library is upgrading its current library management computer system to the Voyager library management system. This means we will have a new system to issue books and the Catalogue will have a new look from 5th December.

Voyager will go live on Friday 5th December. In preparation for that, we regret that there will be some inconvenience to users:

From 1st to 5th December we will be unable to issue books and other material, place holds or renew material. We will, however, be able to issue any urgent material manually.

We will still be able to accept books for return.

On Friday 5th December the Mt Albert Campus Libraries (Main and Building One) will be closed.
