Digital Data Science: Books, Papers & Articles
Reading lists
Many modules have an online reading list which includes details of all the resources which have been recommended by your module co-ordinator. This is the easiest and quickest way to access any required reading.
You can access the reading list via the Moodle course for your module or search by module code or title via our reading list page.

Searching for resources
You can search all of our library resources using the search box above.
- Enter the title you need or a keyword to perform your search and tick the box to narrow to E-resources only.
- Not all of the resources you find in your results are available via the library. We should have plenty of resources you can use but if you do find something you would like to read but can't access then our library services page explains how to acquire them.
