Cambridge Core is the new academic platform from Cambridge University Press that replaces Cambridge Journals Online and Cambridge Books Online and combines content from both. Please note that Lund University does not have access to all content on Cambridge Core. LU has purchased ca 2700 ebooks and subscribes to ca 500 journals (June 2021). To search the platform for titles owned by LU, refine your search by checking the box 'Only search content I have access to'. Please note that a small number of ebooks only have six (6) concurrent users. Cambridge Core is an open platform which means that you can preview abstracts, book descriptions, reviews, and content and index PDF's for all titles, but fulltext is only available for owned titles. For more information about Cambridge Core, please visit the Cambridge University Press YouTube channel.
