• Illustrated London News Archive on trial

    The Illustrated London News Historical Archive has become available. ILN archive covers 1842-2003. Each page has been digitally reproduced in full colour and every article and caption is full-text searchable with hit-term highlighting and links to corresponding illustrations. Facsimilies of articles and illustrations can be viewed, printed and saved. This resource will be very useful for several courses/modules at Edge Hill University. The trial will expire on 5th May so do please feedback your views to Maureen Richardson.  The trial for the Illustrated London News requires a username and password which can be found at here


  • Silent study area during exam weeks

    The individual study rooms on the 2nd floor of the University Library, Ormskirk campus, are booked for exams from 4th – 14th May 2010.  To minimise disruption to students who do want to access PCs for silent study Learning Services have secured a room in the Wilson Centre – WIT1.  The room has 24 PCs, a number of study tables/chairs and access to a black and white printer (you can also select the Library colour printer from this room if necessary). 

    Please remember that this room has been designated for silent study only.  Library staff will be monitoring this space throughout the day, so please respect the rights of other students to work in a silent environment.

    If you have any questions about access to PCs or study spaces, please contact a help desk on 01695 584286 or email [email protected]
