Key changes

One of the first changes that members will observe is the relocation of the catalogue’s search box. The search function has moved to a more prominent position in the centre of the screen, making it easier to locate and explore the catalogue.

The book carousel, which allows users to see at a glance what new books have arrived in the library, has expanded to include new judgments. This feature means that members can quickly see the judgments handed down by the courts in the previous week.

Members will also find it easier to navigate the catalogue using the short cut buttons on the left-hand side of the screen. Our archives, judgments, online guides, services, subject resource packs and wellbeing collections are all accessible directly from the home screen.

The LawWatch archive has moved to a more prominent position on the right-hand side allowing members’ quick access to older issues of the library’s current awareness newsletter.

A new Student Portal allows all students studying at the Law School access to relevant materials depending on their course, including reading lists and short video guides giving quick demonstrations on how to find case law, journal articles and legislation on the LexisNexis and WestlawIE and WestlawUK platforms.
