As we are working on improving our digital services we have two updates that we would like to showcase this month.

Access e-books

Firstly, we would like to introduce you to our main e-book platform Dawsonera. The growing collection which has now reached 140 titles from a wide range of subjects.

Online journals

ICE Members also have now full access to the complete catalogue of Emerald journals which cover subjects such as management, economics, public policy, environmental management, construction and innovation.

You can access the journals through the Emerald Information Service link in the e-resources section on the library catalogue.
