All Oxford Scholarship Online e-books are available to the students and staff of the University until 31st March 2019.
There are more than 15 000 e-books on various subjects, the focus being, however, on the disciplines of the city centre campus. New titles will be added monthly.
Everybody can browse the information about the publications and research activities of the University of Helsinki researchers in a public portal. Through the research portal, one can get information about the experts, publications, projects and other activities of the multidisciplinary university. Several publications can also be read openly.
Members of the research community for example add their publications and fields of science annually. We recommend that researchers also connect their ORCID identifier to their TUHAT-profile (requires UH-user login). The University uses the system for the reporting to the Ministry of Education and Culture and uses the collected data for example in research evaluations.
Researcher, check from our video or from the guide how you add the information to the system.
The Kaisa House’s overnight return machine has broken down and out of use from 14th until 18th of January 2019. You can return books outside of opening hours to both Kumpula and Viikki Campus Libraries.
Due dates from Monday until Friday will be transferred to Monday 21st of January.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this equipment failure.
The Helsinki University Library had an trial on Routledge Historical Resources online: History of Economic Thought last year. Now this resource has been purchased.
History of Economic Thought is an online platform that brings together the best and most relevant scholarship from Taylor & Francis, its imprints, and its authors. It is the second project in the new Routledge Historical Resources online programme.
The resource covers the fascinating subject of the history of economic thought over the period 1700–1914. It contains an extensive range of primary and secondary resources, including full books, selected chapters, and journal articles, as well as new thematic essays, and subject introductions on key themes. There is also a video introduction to the subject from Heinz D. Kurz, one of the academic editors of the History of Economic Thought.
