NewsFilm Online

We now have access to the pilot version of NewsFilm Online.

It gives us over 3,000 hours of downloadable television news and cinema newsreels, selected from the ITN/Reuters Television archives.

The site is officially launched on the 3rd October.

Off-campus access with EZProxy

Several resources which were previously only available on campus, are now available off-campus too – thanks to our new proxy server from EZProxy.

The proxy links are on the Databases A-Z page.   Off-campus users will see a University login box when they click on a link.  They just need to put in their University login details, and they’ll get through to the service.

On campus users will go straight through.

The services benefitting  are:

  • ACM Digital Library
  • FORS Forensic Science Abstracts
  • IEEE Computer Science Digital Library
  • Linguistics Abstracts
  • Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database
  • Bridgeman Art Library
  • Google Scholar
