Often the Library will provide trial access to a resource. Trial access means that the resource is available for a limited time only, usually from one week to one month. The Library does this to see whether the resource is useful for the sector and for that, we rely on feedback from you to help assess whether we should purchase the resource. This page will provide details of the resources the Library currently has on trial.
You can also suggest resources for trial. Contact the Library if there' s a resource you think we should look at.
We can't make the access to the resources publicly available, so we'll provide access details on a separate, password-protected page. The password is the same as for some other library resources (for example, the eBooks for FE Subscription Collection and GreenFile). If you don't know the password contact the library (with an ETB/College/Training Centre email)
