NLB Resources: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how to access free professional journals and e-books through the National Library Board resources.

The NLB Resources scheme provides residents with digital access to a wide range of reading materials and research tools.

Who it's for

This resource is available to all residents who have an active library account. If you are a resident and have already signed up for a library membership, you are eligible to use these digital services.

What you get

Members receive free access to a variety of digital reading materials. This includes access to e-books, which allow you to read on your own devices, as well as professional journals. These journals are particularly useful for those needing to stay informed on specific academic or professional subjects.

What it costs you

There is no monetary cost to use these digital resources. The only requirement is that you maintain a library membership, which is provided to residents for free.

The catch to know

The main thing to keep in mind is that many professionals often overlook the value of this service. Many people do not realize that their standard membership grants them free access to premium databases that would typically require a paid subscription elsewhere.

How to apply

  1. Confirm that you have an active library membership.
  2. If you do not have one, visit the library to set up your account.
  3. Visit the official portal to browse the available digital collections.
  4. Log in with your account credentials to access the e-books and journals.
