Finding and Accessing eBooks
The library provides access to thousands of ebooks which are discoverable via Library Search. You may restrict your search to “Electronic Books” by using the drop-down menu to the right of the search bar.
If you want to include wider ebook collections in your search results (such as Open Access ebooks), leave the drop-down menu set to “Everything”.
In the Library Search results, click the green “Online Access” link under the title to go through to the ebook.
Ebooks are accessible to current Goldsmith’s students and staff. If you are off campus, you will be prompted to log-in with your Goldsmiths username and password. If you are not prompted to log in, look for a link on the page to “Log in via your institution”.
If you search for a title within an ebook platform and are not permitted access, please search for the title on Library Search as the library may have access to the ebook on an alternative platform.
Goldsmiths staff and students have access to additional ebook collections via Senate House Library. It is free to join, please see our guide for registering for Senate House Library and instant access to resources here
