Browse Kumpula campus e-books in BookNavigator

The library´s digitization is evolving and now printed materials are, especially in Kumpula, just a small part of our collections. In addition to full coverage in ResearchGuides, all campus fields are now also listed in the BookNavigator e-book service!

It complements the existing Helka catalogue by offering a modern, easy to use, and mobile friendly way of browsing the library´s e-book collections.

You can browse e-books by release date, popularity or even tags. Field subcategories are still under development and will be updated throughout the semester.

Kumpula campus fields now all have their own ResearchGuides site

The new library ResearchGuides sites gather a curated selection of field specific library services under one website. These sites are aimed primarily for students and staff. Starting this semester all fields from the Kumpula campus are covered.

These sites will continue to evolve throughout the semester. For example chemistry and computer science have recently been updated with lists of e-books currently required in the departmental curricula. In addition to field specific sites, the service hosts various general guides such as e-book usage and measuring research impact.

Authentication to content that is restricted to university students and staff is done automatically via UH login, so the new field guides are worth bookmarking at home too!

This service is still fresh and the library wishes to gather as much feedback as possible from its users. What kind of content would help you as a student or a researcher? Please email your subject contact or fill in a questionnaire!
