Really good. Hope we can continue

using this Feedback Very easy to use and set

up. Good variety of journals. Hope it will

continue to exist after the trial period

Very easy to use

Very useful and user-friendly app. I'm regularly using it

Fantastic tool!

Easy to use. Being able to populate a bookshelf of your favourite journals which updates with new articles was useful. It meant I was able to review and keep up with publications more quickly and easily.

Excellent resource for my MSc studies and for accessing information in real time in clinic areas
