The UEL SCONUL Access blog…

…is a very helpful reference point for SCONUL Access cardholders to keep up-to-date with opening hours and access restrictions both at UEL and other libraries in London and beyond. It is regularly updated by our SCONUL Access administrator, so it’s well worth bookmarking if you are a frequent SCONUL Access user: UEL SCONUL Access blog.

Institutional research repositories...

...are where universities make publicly available their research output. This can include pre-print journal articles, conference papers and other research outputs, as well as sometimes including dissertations and theses. At UEL we have roar@UEL, but for a list of repositories from other universities, as well as facilities to search across their content, have a look at the following webpage: http://www.arl.org/sparc/repositories/collectedrep.shtml. Alternatively, if you just want a list of all repositories (by continent, then country) from around the world, check out this rather impressive collection of links: http://www.opendoar.org/countrylist.php.
