Maybe you left behind that folder of recommended readings that your tutor gave you? Or perhaps you never got the chance to borrow that book on medicine from your academic library? Whatever the reason for your resource hunting, never fear. Christchurch City Libraries has a huge range of academic eResources for tertiary students, including articles, eBooks, videos, and newspapers.
Looking for some academic articles? eResource Discovery Search searches across most of the (literally) millions of academic articles in our collection, as well as ebooks, photos, journals, newspapers, and videos.
Perhaps the EDS search is providing you with a bit toooo much choice, and you're not really in the mood for strategic advanced searching. You can also look at our databases separately.
There are some real stand out databases in our collection including:
Cambridge Companions Online is a great resource for English, music, and philosophy students looking for guidance through their topic. Be sure to check out more of our music, and language eResources
