Withdrawn resource: Ethical Fashion Forum

Access to the Ethical Fashion Forum service, which was enabled in Library OneSearch in March of this year, has been suspended following the conclusion of the initial access period.

The subscription to the EFF was paid for directly by the School of Art and Design (rather than by the library), and the school is now reviewing future subscription options.

If a new subscription is activated, access to the EFF will be re-enabled in Library OneSearch. The entry for the EFF on the secure ‘Other Passwords’ page of the library web site is in the process of being removed (but will, of course, be reinstated in the event of a renewed subscription).

Withdrawn resource: Land, Life and Leisure

All entries for the Land, Life and Leisure database have been removed from Library OneSearch following the discontinuation of the service this summer.
