New Look Subject Gateways!

Grangegorman library has just launched new-look Subject Gateways for the Subject Areas-

Art and Design
Photography
Criminology
Social Sciences.

We still have the same great information available, including access to subject-specific e-resources, dissertation lists, and information about our Group Study Rooms.
New additions include- our in-depth Library Guides that should give you all the information you need from starting an assignment all the way to doing research for your dissertation.
We also have an Ebook section that groups all relevant ebooks together on one page.
Another great section is the 'How to Guides' drop down menu, with guides on anything from 'how to set up a Library PIN' and what you can use it for, to 'how to set up network printing on your own laptop'.

You can browse our new Subject Gateways by going to the main Library Website- www.dit.ie/library or by clicking on the links above.

If there is anything that you think we should add to these subject pages please let us know.
