Exhibitions, promotions and publications
The University Library mounts occasional exhibitions and has been responsible for a number of general publications in local history. Previous exhibitions and publications are archived in our Special Collections pages. Details of any current exhibitions and promotions are featured here.
In September, 2010, Paisley Campus Library had a really nice exhibition on in the Library foyer: Bookbindings by art students at Williamwood High School in East Renfrewshire and pupils at the associated primary schools. There were also prints done by pupils at Carolside Primary School. More pictures on the Library facebook page.

NetLibrary e-books
Netlibrary e-books have moved to Ebsco. For now, you will need to search for the e-books on the Catalogue as usual and then log onto Ebsco with your Athens details. Once you are on the Ebsco e-books database you will need to search for the book again. Use the Advanced Search option; this will allow you to limit the search to subject or title or author, etc. Click on "eBook full text" to open the book. Keep watching Library News for an improvement to this situation...
