Q. Is it easy to access online resources?

We try to make it as easy as possible.

We offer a wide range of online materials, including e-books and journal articles, that can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. You can search through most of our online subscriptions using the Library Search.

We also recommend downloading LibKey Nomad, a free browser extension that provides one-click access from search results or non-paywalled databases to full-text journal articles and eBooks from our paid subscriptions and open access sources. Simply install the plugin and select the University of Sunderland. When searching websites like PubMed, LibKey will embed links to full-text articles in your search results. If you go directly to articles from Google Scholar or view books on Amazon, you’ll see a button that takes you to our authenticated source for that material or a link for interlibrary loan if we cannot provide access.
