Proquest E-book Central
We are pleased to announce that the Trust now has access to the industry’s premier ebook platform which offers scholarly ebooks from leading publishers. Proquest E-book Central is being trialled within the Trust to allow staff to access over 180 thousand e-books across all disciplinaries.
The platform is accessible with an Open Athens account. Access the platform here: https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/lscbhsft/home.action (please ensure you have logged in with your Open Athens details first).
The platform allows you to search for a given title or browse the collections. From there you are able to read the whole text online, download the book for up to 21 days, or download a PDF chapter.
The Library team are always keen to hear feedback about the resources available to staff. Please email: academic.library@lscft.nhs.uk with any comments, feedback, suggestions or book title recommendations.
Please feel free to download and display the E-book poster to share with your department and staff.
