The password of power ?


“one password to open them, one password to find them all” …apologies to J.R.R.Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings)



In previous years students and staff attempting to use the library’s 24/7 full text databases from home or in the college, needed to log in a number of times if they wanted to utilise the full suite of database options.

No longer. As part of the 2007 range of improvements to the library’s online services, access to all the databases from our
web site have been reconfigured to allow for a common login. Once through the secure page, staff and students can gain direct access to the search interfaces up to 10 general and specialist products, ranging from the Australian Standards, through to the Australian and New Zealand Reference Centre (ANZRC).

Contact with the
library should be made to obtain the current 2007 passwords. Staff will be readily available between 12-3.00pm to give onsite demonstrations (in the library or sections) throughout the remainder of the semester. Outside of this please ring on 02 9825 7416 or 9825 7414 to schedule a more convenient time.
