For users having difficulty accessing ebooks and journal articles, you can still access them directly via publisher or database websites & logging in through Shibboleth! Your Philosophy Library Team are also here to help online and in person.
We're experiencing a few technical difficulties with some of our digital services today (although iDiscover is still available to search our collections). Please bear with us while we try and resolve these issues. We'll update you as soon as everything is back up and running!

We’re continuing to experience a major technology outage as a result of a cyber-attack, affecting our website, online systems and services, and some onsite services too. We anticipate restoring many services in the next few weeks, but some disruption may persist. We have now confirmed that this was a ransomware attack, by a group known for such criminal activity. As mentioned in previous updates, we’ve taken targeted protective measures to ensure the integrity of our systems, and we’re undertaking a forensic investigation with the support of NCSC, the Metropolitan Police and cybersecurity specialists. Our buildings are open and events and exhibitions are going ahead. While our website and some services are offline, we’re regularly updating our blog with information on what’s still available: bit.ly/BLCyberUpdateNov Thank you for your ongoing patience while we continue to investigate this incident. We’re really grateful for your understanding.

Thanks so much for the lovely, feedback @7NpwmaVD7YFCOwM! So glad we could help. Keep your book recommendations coming! 😊
I must express my admiration and gratitude to the Casimir Lewy Library in Cambridge. I requested of this book on Monday because none of the libraries in Cambridge has this book, and they handed this book to me on Thursday. It's so fast.
