New LibrarySearch

In July, we’re changing to a new system for LibrarySearch.

If you’re here in the summer or returning in the autumn, follow these steps to get ready for the change:
1. Tidy up your library account: return any books you don’t need, and pay off any fines you may have. Our vacation borrowing checklist has more details.
2. Export your Favourites from LibrarySearch: email them to yourself or import them into your preferred reference management software.
3. Keep an eye on your email: we’ll keep you posted about key dates and developments.

Why is LibrarySearch changing? The new system allows us to make big improvements to the way you borrow books in future. How LibrarySearch looks and works will stay quite similar, but with greater potential for future improvements.

If you’re on campus over the summer and would be interested in testing the new LibrarySearch, please email is-publishing@kent.ac.uk to register your interest.
