We provide a wide range of resources and support to help you to succeed in your studies.
Each faculty has subject specialist librarians who work with your lecturers to ensure that you have access to the appropriate resources to support your studies. The librarians also provide workshops as part of your programme to help you find and reference the required quality information.
To find out about the key resources for your subject and who your librarian is, the best place to start is the Library Subject Guides.
Please use the following pages to make the most of the library resources and support on offer.

The Library collections include an extensive range of eBooks, well over 100,000!
Our eBooks complement our print books and greatly improve the ease of access to our collection, especially for people studying remotely. They also provide benefits with regard to accessibility. See the Kortext Accessibility page for more details.
We provide access to our eBooks as Personal eTextbooks and Library eBooks.
Free Personal eTextbooks are provided to most students enrolled on undergraduate or postgraduate taught courses based at the Hendon campus in London, or the Mauritius campus.
Students on some programmes will be provided with personal access to the Adobe Creative Cloud instead of Personal eTextbooks.
For each module studied, students will receive one free eTextbook – an average of four books per student per year. These textbooks are to keep in perpetuity and students will be able to access them throughout their university career and onwards in their future career.
The scheme is run in partnership with Kortext/JS Group (www.kortext.com) – Please look out for emails from Kortext to your Middlesex University email address.
These emails contain your username (MDX email address) and your password. They also contain any information on any new books added to your account.
There are three main ways to access your Personal eTextbooks:
Please visit the Kortext support pages: http://www.kortext.com/support/
Log a query with UniHelp: https://unihelponline.mdx.ac.uk/#/forms/personaleTextbookscheme
