Search the catalogue
You can search our catalogue of books and e-books from any device connected to the internet. Search by keyword, author or title. Click on a title from the list of results to see more details. If necessary, use the filters to limit your search to items only available here. The catalogue also includes items from all the libraries in the NoW network, which you can also borrow on inter-library loan.
For e-books, log in with your NHS Athens username and password to read the full-text.
Renewals
Most books are issued for 4 weeks, and will be automatically renewed 5 times. You will receive an email to let you if this has been successful or if the books need to be returned. If they can’t be auto-renewed it is usually because they have been reserved by another user, your library account has expired, or you have outstanding fees or loans. Once books have received 5 auto-renewals you will need to return them. If they are still required, we can re-issue them.
All other items will need to be renewed. You can login to your online account and renew the items, or contact the library.
