New Look Copac

New Look Copac

Copac, the National, Academic and Specialist Library Catalogue, has an updated and refreshed new look.  This is the first stage of a major redevelopment and work will continue, eg. to improve mobile support.

Copac exposes rare and unique research material by bringing together the catalogues of over 70 major UK and Irish libraries. In a single search you can discover the holdings of the UK’s national libraries (including the British Library), many University libraries, and specialist research libraries.

Electronic Resources Survey 2012

FIL are once again working with Conarls and the North West Libraries Interlending Partnership to map electronic resources and related Inter Library Loan policies in the UK.  A similar survey was undertaken in late 2010, the results of this can be found on the FIL website.

The comparison survey is now closed and we would like to thank everyone who participated.  The results of the survey will be posted on the website in due course.
