Opening Hours

We're experimenting with displaying the current day's opening hours on the library home page. Go there and you'll see today's opening hours for both Aungier St and Dame St libraries. We're also experimenting with Google Calendar (Google really do mean to take over the planet), and have a Google Calendar for library opening hours embedded here. Any feedback gratefully appreciated

Edit: broken link fixed. Now I'll go stand in the corner for a while

Temporary free access to Cambridge Online Journals

Free access to Cambridge Online Journals for the next 6 weeks

I'll let them say it themselves

In order to reach out to new readers, who may not enjoy access to high quality scientific and academic research, all 2009 and 2010 content on Cambridge Journals Online (CJO) will be made free to access between 15th July and 30th August 2011.

We hope this period of free access enables researchers, students and interested individuals to benefit from some of the world’s most valuable academic content. It will also enable Cambridge Journals to study patterns of usage and formulate improvements to CJO which will benefit all users of CJO going forwards.

To access the free articles, simply use the ‘Browse Journals’ or ‘Search’ options at the top of this page. To take advantage of all CJO functionality, including the ability to bookmark papers and save your searches, please register here.
