National Union List of Journals – Join Us

Natasha Skeen – Deputy Librarian, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust

What is it?

NULJ is an ILL service that provides its members:

1. reciprocal access to print journal collections

2. cross-sectoral access to several non-NHS, medical collections i.e., universities and charities

3. a cheaper alternative to the British Library

How does it work?

Requests are made via the online platform, which identifies members and their holdings. Members provide excellent service, often replying within 24 hours.

How much does it cost?

There is a sliding scale based upon the number of holdings, the maximum fee is £50 per year.

Can anyone join?

We only ask that members have a minimum of 10 holdings listed. The greater your holdings the less you pay.
