Catalogue

The catalogue is a record of all the items held in the Library. These include your prescribed textbooks, additional reading material and journals. You can search the catalogue by:

  • Author’s Name
  • Title of the book you are searching for
  • Keywords (names and words from the title of the book)
  • Subject (e.g. Marketing)

The books are arranged in the Library using the Dewey Classification [numbers] System. The numbers range from 000-999 depending on the subject. It is vital that you get the correct number to enable you to find the book as quickly as possible.



Database & Electronic Resources

EbscoHost is a database that allows Kent students access to academic journals and articles. Ebsco’s database Business Source Complete is a definitive scholarly business database. Business Source Complete covers the most important scholarly business journals dating back to 1886. In addition to the searchable cited articles from more than 1200 journals, it also provides full text journals in all disciplines of business and economics.

This will provide access to local and international newspapers, full text journals, e-books, magazines and digital images from the heritage collections.

You can join on-line and have your card posted to you or pick it up from the Library. The State Library card gives you remote access to the State libraries e-resources.
