  • OLIS Oxford Libraries' Union Catalogue. Go directly to OLIS to renew your books.

  • E-books If you have reading list books published by Taylor and Francis or Routledge, click here to see if there is an e-copy.

  • OxLIP+ (the Oxford Libraries Information Platform) gives access to subject databases and e-resources. Start from OxLIP+ to browse for education and related subject databases, or to do a quick cross-search of resources. Just ask library staff for help.
