I am unable to access an ebook on the Wiley Online Library platform
Answer
In our library catalogue, we have an online collection called Wiley Books (SHEDL) which hosts ebooks from the Wiley Online Library platform.
While we do have access to many full text ebooks on this platform, there are also 'reference' only ebooks, meaning we only have access to the title and what the resource includes, e.g. chapter or article titles, rather than having access to the full resource.
We are currently trying to find a way of differentiating resources which we have full access to and those which are reference only within our catalogue.
In the meantime, there are a few options for finding access to the resource:
For postgraduate students or staff:
- You may be able to access the book using your GUID.
- Search for the ebook via the University of Glasgow's Library Catalogue to check if you can access the book there
For undergraduate students, or if the book is unable to be accessed via the University of Glasgow:
- Submit a purchase suggestion to us via our Suggest a Purchase form
- We will review if we are able to purchase full access to the text, and will get back in touch with the outcome
We are continuing to work on finding a solution to this so our library catalogue only surfaces content we have full access to, but in the meantime, we hope the above solutions might provide access to the ebook.
