Would you like to explore the world of ‘Dickens’? Then discover the OU’s ‘best kept secret’ – your online library!

Library Services has been experimenting with some new videos to promote and highlight the wealth of resources available to support your studies. Collections of ‘world class’ high quality online content covering ejournal collections, newspaper and document archives, video and audio content and a growing range of ebooks have been selected and used in a suite of themed showcases presented via the library’s ‘Explore library resources’ web pages.

Are you aware of all the library resources available to you when you study with the OU? Review this video created for Arts and Humanities and let us know which resources you didn’t know about or what you thought of the video.
