May 31st: a new design for Primo and changing routes to electronic information resources

Following consultation with student focus groups, Primo is undergoing a re-design towards a cleaner, more mobile-friendly page with links to major sources and request forms gathered on the yellow page banner and easy-to-find help, advice and training information.

Your Aber collections searches will be across all AU libraries, allowing access to resources you may have not otherwise been aware of. As always it will be possible to refine your results by location after the initial search.

Changing routes to electronic information resources

The link to Databases A-Z will be replaced with a link to E-resources A-Z, an alphabetic list of electronic information resources.

This will be located on the yellow banner next to E-journals@Aber where you can search and browse the AU electronic journal holdings.

N.B. not all the freely available web pages in Databases A-Z will be included in E-Resources A-Z.

Subject-specific electronic information resources will be also be promoted via the Subject information pages.

The “Selected databases” search in Databases A-Z will no longer be available, however the Articles & more search returns results from many thousands of electronic information resources which you can store to your E-Shelf.

If you have one or more sets of databases stored in Databases A-Z, and you want to make a note of them before the Databases A-Z link is replaced, make sure to do so before May 31^st.

If you have any questions about these upcoming changes please contact your subject librarian or acastaff@aber.ac.uk 01970621896.
