Goldsmiths University of London – SUNCAT’s newest Contributing Library

We are pleased to announce that Goldsmiths University of London has now been added to SUNCAT, making this our third new Contributing Library of 2013. Just under 6,000 of its serial records has just been loaded into our service. This addition brings the total number of contributing libraries to 92, plus the CONSER database, the ISSN register and the Directory of Open Access Journals.

Goldsmiths University of London is situated in New Cross, South East London, five miles from central London. Its academic departments, centres and institutes offer a range of study options within the arts and humanities, social sciences, cultural studies, computing, and entrepreneurial business and management. The Library’s electronic and print journals collection supports teaching, learning and research of the College and the subject coverage therefore aims to relate closely to the academic work of College.
