We now have new computers in the library for reader use. They have access to OLIS, the internet and all the usual electronic resources as before, but also have Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Access) and EndNote installed. It is not possible to save anything to the hard drive however, so you will need to bring your own USB drive if you need to save things. If you don’t have a USB stick and need to save something temporarily (eg, to email it to yourself or to transfer to your own laptop), we have a couple that we can lend you – please ask at the staff desk.

The only computer that hasn’t been replaced yet is the one attached to the microfilm scanner – this is due to a problem with incompatible hardware which should be fixed shortly.
