They have been selected by specialist Liaison Librarians, working with program leaders and course coordinators.

It is important to limit your search to “Full Text Online” to eliminate print resources held in the Melbourne Library.

Subject Guides

Our specialist Liaison Librarians have created online guides to help staff and students start their research:

• Subject Guides link you to key resources in your subject area. Some guides link you to types of information – for example Industry Information, Company Information and Standards.

• Subject Guides point to some important content that is not available in LibrarySearch.

• We also have Reference Guides that point you to online reference tools such as e-encyclopaedias.
