Thank you for your comment. The University of Bedfordshire does not use Athens instead we use Shibboleth. Shibboleth or UK Access Mangement Federation is a secure way to log in to digital information resources from off-campus using your university username and password.
Shibboleth and Athens are not resources in their own right you have to use the catalogue or DISCOVER to find materials in the first place.

If you try use ATHENS you will not be successful as the University does not use this tool

I am concerned that you don't know this as a Masters student. May I advise you to urgently contact your Academic Liaison Librarian so you can have some 121 time to build up your search strategies? Please email Avtar Natt
to arrange a meeting
In the meantime you may find these web pages useful
