If you would like one to one advice contact your Academic Liaison Librarian, Joanne McPhie. Please book an appointment or email joanne.mcphie@brunel.ac.uk. I can help with using resources like databases and journals, literature searching, referencing and finding information and data.

Search Library resources

Our discovery tool, Library Search, will look for books, journal articles and more in one quick easy search - a great place to start your research. The results list also includes full-text links to subscribed content, like articles and textbooks. 

To search Library 'Search all' you can use keywords relevant to your topic, author names or the title of the source. 

 

For a more comprehensive search, individual databases offer greater functionality and give full access to a tailored suite of resources for your subject. To find out the database available in your subject, look for your programme in our Subject Guides, or you can view and access all our Databases alphabetically on the Databases A-Z webpage.
