Library E-resource expansion
The Society library is delighted to announce a major expansion of the e-resources available to Fellows for 2022, including new e-journals, e-books and journal archives going back as far as the late 18th century.
As well as covering all aspects of geological sciences, this new package will offer users access to some of the latest research on topics such as energy policy, the energy transition, carbon capture and geohazards.
We are also expanding our historical content, with acquisition of the digital archives for Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh [1788 – ], Geological Magazine [1864 – ] and Proceedings of the Geologists’ Association [1859 – ]. And we regularly add new e-books via the VLeBooks platform.
This means that, as well as the Lyell Collection, Fellows can now access hundreds of thousands of pages of Earth science research from other providers via their computer or mobile device. To access these amazing resources, you will need an OpenAthens account. If you don’t already have one, please email the library (library@geolsoc.org.uk) for more information on how to register.
