NUsearch changes coming soon

About the planned upgrade

In early Spring 2025, University of Nottingham Libraries will be upgrading the system that supports the library search tool, NUsearch.

This work is part of Libraries ongoing commitment to providing the best possible access to study and research resources for the university community.

Changes to NUsearch

Most of the changes are taking place behind the scenes to help the system work more effectively, but there will be a few changes to the functionality of NUsearch including:

  • Real-time updates – Changes to our library collections will take place in real time. This means if we purchase an ebook, it will be available for immediate access rather than the following day.
  • Search within journals – A brand-new Search Inside section will be added to each journal record allow you to search for articles within a specific journal.

More information about the upgrade, including the actions you may need to take to retain any saved searches and items and to update any resource bookmarks, will be shared closer to the time.
