Wishing everyone a wonderful break and special time with your friends and family over the festive season.

Thank you everyone for participating in the library survey and entering the draw.

We currently have a trial version of a new product "Food Studies Online" which is a mix of video, photographs and bits and bobs (menus, advertisements, etc). Go to

and Login the same as accessing databases.

The collection includes these videos:

 

 

It is not designed specifically for nutritional medicine studies. It appears to be an archival collection, BUT it may be of interest to you.

 

Is it of interest? Would it be beneficial for your studies? Please provide feedback to your liaison librarian or email library@endeavour.edu.au

 

The trial finishes 1st December 2015.
