About the Dubai Library
The Dubai Library was established in September 2005.
Resources currently available are:
- A collection of books to support the courses being
taught on the campus; this collection is added to each year as
the courses taught on the campus and the supporting Library services
are developed.
- Databases
which allow you to search for details of articles, conference
papers, theses and other information on your research topic.
- Electronic journals
which allow you to access the full text of articles from
hundreds of journals from your PC.
- Resource guides for the
courses taught at the Dubai campus, which assist staff and
students to identify the most important information resources
for their study and research.
