Find Your Online Articles Faster

Melbourne Polytechnic Library have upgraded their discovery service FindIt@ to utilise Full Text Finder. What does this mean for me as a student or teacher? You can continue to search for everything from the one stop Google like search box, and then narrow your search down to a particular journal title. The new Full Text Finder link resolver will now connect you to your full text faster than before.

 So, why not give it a go? Visit http://library.melbournepolytechnic.edu.au and start searching FindIt@ for all of those great full text articles and eBooks to support your learning.
