 Alert The More Books and More Articles ordering service will be suspended for the Easter break (29 March to 2 April), returning on 3 April.

Oxford Brookes students have been exploring our books, ebooks and online journal articles more than ever before, but we know you'd like the opportunity to access even more resources.

More Books and More Articles allow you to read more of what you need - wherever you are right now.

“It’s a great service that grants students access to books without the need to purchase them. I couldn’t have wanted anything better”

“Amazing service for students, quick and easy to fill out the request and librarians are extremely helpful”

“It's the highlight of the year”

More books

We know from your feedback that you would like better access to the books you need for your course. More Books has been designed to do just that.

Use the online form to tell us what you need and we will aim to buy the book for the Library as quickly as we can.

How it works:

  • You can request up to five books.
  • We will let you know if we can’t buy what you’ve asked for.
  • Publishers don’t make every title available as an affordable ebook through library suppliers.
  • Please note we are not able to purchase Kindle books as they are licenced for individuals, not institutions like universities.
  • More Books is available to all our students.

More articles

We know from your feedback that you would like to be able to quickly and easily read journal articles we don’t subscribe to.

How it works:

  • Make your More Articles request in LibrarySearch
  • Find an article in Libraries WorldWide
  • Use the More Articles request button to submit your request
  • We'll send you a PDF.
