Digital Resources

i am trying to read the electronic version of MMR and autism [electronic resource] : what parents need to know / Michael Fitzpatrick. but when i open the green tab 'read rental online' it opens but there is no writing at all. is this how the electronic book is or is this a problem with the book itself.


I would always advise that you look for electronic resources via the library catalogue
 
or the University's search application DISCOVER

 
Type the title of the resource in the search box click return
This will take you to a page with the title of the resource click on this then log in with your Library account log on
At the next page you will need to select how many days you require the download for - from a drop down menu
You need to have an up to date version of Adobe Reader (the page offers a link for you to do this if necessary)
Click on the down load button - it takes a few seconds to load and there you have it.
 
Please try this route and if you have any problems please ring (during staffed opening hours)
01234 793189
for phone support
 
I have tried to answer your question as thoroughly as possible. If you need me to expand further or if I have missed anything out please get back to me.
