Contacting your subject librarians over the summer

To those of you graduating this Summer we wish you well and hope you take away happy memories of Swansea.

If you have academic work to do over the Summer we want you to know that your subject librarians will be here to support you.

You can email the team with any questions you have: buslib@swansea.ac.uk and we’re happy to arrange appointments via Skype or over the telephone.

If you prefer to chat with a librarian online you can do so via our Ask a Librarian chat service, which is accessible via Library Guides.

Don’t forget that that the Management Library Guide contains a range of useful information including referencing guides and links to relevant databases.

Database of the month – Web of Science

This month we want to tell you about Web of Science which is a scientific citation indexing service that provides a comprehensive citation search with over 1 billion cited reference connections indexed from high quality peer reviewed journals, books and proceedings. Subject areas include engineering and business.

Web of Science gives access to multiple databases that reference cross-disciplinary research, which allows for in-depth exploration of specialised sub-fields within an academic or scientific discipline.
