BONUS+ now gives you free access to books from eight major Australian University Libraries, with a ninth due to join up in August. That's 4.5 million books to choose from.

Try these searches to get an idea of the possibilities...

• 'facebook' in Massey's Encore catalogue gives 16 results (at the time of writing this)
• 'facebook' in BONUS+ gives 55 results (maybe more by the time you read this) - and you can request any of the available ones for free.

It's very easy to search BONUS+ from within Massey's catalogues. Just search Encore or our classic Library Catalogue as usual, then if the title or topic you want is not available – either because we don’t own it, or it is out on loan – click on the BONUS+ button on the same page to automatically search the shared Catalogue. Or alternatively, search the BONUS+ Catalogue directly for your title or topic.

Requested items usually arrive here in 7-10 days. Books are issued for 21 days, and may be renewed once if not required by another borrower. Staff and postgraduate students can have up to 10 BONUS+ items requested/issued at once, and undergraduate students up to 5 items.

Visit the Library Catalogue for more information on BONUS+ and how to use it.

Not sure about APA referencing for your assignment? The Library for Undergraduates page now has a quick link to APA Interactive (under 'Other Useful Massey Links'). This easy-to-use tool creates customised examples of APA references and in-text citations. It's created by the team at Massey's OWLL (Online Writing & Learning Link). We've found it really useful in the Library for referencing queries, so we've made it easier to find from the Library website.
If you're using another style or getting beyond the basics, we also have links to other Referencing and Style Guides, or you may be interested in EndNote bibliographic management software.

Need help with the classic Library Catalogue? We've just launched a new set of Help pages to make searching a bit easier for you. When you're in the Library Catalogue, you'll see the Help link at the top of the page. Or take a look below...
