Access to Law Trove
Access to Oxford University Press e-book titles under Law Trove is withdrawn starting in October 2022.
Any inconvenience caused is regrettable.
For print titles, please refer to Enterprise for availability.
Summon upgrade 29 to 30 May
Summon will be undertaking some updates that will result in system downtime for up to 24 hours from 09:00 Saturday 29 May to 09:00 Sunday 30 May.
This means that Summon will be available for searching, but some of the links may be unavailable.
If you have been planning to use Summon for research the weekend of the 29- 30 May, we would recommend downloading any articles or chapters you will need from Summon before the outage, so that your studies are not impacted.
