We are pleased to share the second issue of our newsletter in April. Today we are glad to present another bunch of sources offered by leading publishing partners supporting universities in the crisis. 

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 do 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.

More sources in our next letters!
