BONUS+ welcomes a new partner

With the addition of a new partner university in BONUS+, UB students and staff now have access to more books and more subject areas.

If the item you want is out on loan to another borrower or not held by UB Library, you can search the BONUS+ catalogue and place a hold at one of the other participating university libraries. It is then posted to your nominated pickup location within 7 working days.

The BONUS+ union catalogue has recently expanded to nearly 7 million books with the addition of a new partner in February - Griffith University.

Griffith University has seven libraries in the Brisbane, Logan and the Gold Coast regions of Queensland. The library contributes approximately 400,000 books across all campuses to BONUS+. Collection strengths include science, engineering, environmental science, computer science, biomedical sciences, psychology, nursing and midwifery, pharmacy, physiotherapy and exercise science, public health, medicine, dentistry and oral health, business and commerce, hospitality, tourism and sport, education, law, social sciences and humanities, film studies, music, and art.

The other participating university libraries are in Victoria (Ballarat, Deakin, La Trobe, Melbourne and Victoria), New South Wales (Newcastle, Wollongong and University of Technology Sydney), Queensland (Queensland University of Technology) Western Australia (Edith Cowan and Murdoch) and New Zealand (Massey).
