Operations & Systems Management

This page will help you get more out of your Library resources for your assignments, projects and dissertations in Business Information Systems

Books provide an excellent overview of a topic and are a great resource when starting an assignment:

  • For printed books, you can borrow and return 30 items and these automatically renew (but are recalled if wanted by another user).
  • Lots of ebooks are also available which you can read online, search within and annotate.
    • Some ebooks have limits on how many students can access at the same time and restrictions on downloading/printing. 

Find books and ebooks using the Library Catalogue (see below)

To find print books:

  • Search the Library Catalogue (second search box on the page)
  • For each book, note the floor, number and author code: FIRST FLOOR 658.00721 BRY 
  • Most business books can be found on Floor 1A in the 658s.

To find ebooks:

  • Search the Library Catalogue (second search box on the page)
  • Filter your search on the left hand side to 'Electronic Books'.  
  • Click on the title of the ebook to load the full record, and then 'Online access' to view.
