Why not check out our extensive collection of books and e-books related to your area of study?

Remember that you can always search for specific books or topics using our LibrarySearch Tool.


Your Library Workshops

We offer free, informal workshops on various Library topics throughout the academic year and we would encourage you to come along if you'd like to improve your skills in:

  • referencing correctly
  • using the new LibrarySearch tool
  • efficiently using effective search strategies to find relevant material for your assignments
  • using RefWorks

If you have a specific question, or want a 1-1 discussion with us, you can also pop over to one of our drop-ins! They usually run in the mornings and afternoons, when we're not delivering workshops. Check out the KnowHOW Timetable for more details on dates and times. No need to book an appointment, just show up!

Here are the upcoming Library KnowHOW workshops relevant to Accounting and Finance. We hope to see you there!


Google Scholar

Google Scholar can be a useful additional source when looking for journal articles. While our collection includes access to around 53 million journal articles (and growing!), unfortunately we will not have access to all materials you find on Google Scholar, so remember to check whether we subscribe to the resources listed in the results.

All our databases

Did you know that we currently subscribe to over 200 databases covering all subject areas taught in RGU? And you can access them for free! Have a look through our extensive list and discover something new!
