If you have further questions that have not been answered via the Alumni FAQ webpage, please contact the Alumni Relations team via this online form.
Access to electronic resources
You can have access to a range of popular electronic databases which span a wide range of subject areas.
The cost is $20 for 12 months' access from the date of payment. No e-books are available as part of this package.
You will need to create an Alumni Portal account first. Then, once you have paid the annual subscription fee, you will be able to access the databases through the Alumni Portal.
