We are pleased to share the third issue of our newsletter in April. 

We also would like to ensure that off-campus access to most of the databases remains 24/7 through the library portal and we try to keep it in this way.

Please visit COVID-19 libguide to find the full list of current free resources and solutions and quick help for access-related issues.
