Lean Library is your smart resource research help
Thanks to the free browser plugin Lean Library, you'll know after a click whether an e-resource, book or article is available through Odisee. This handy tool automatically checks hundreds of sources at databases and publishers, such as Google Scholar, Standard Bookstore, PubMed.... Install Lean Library and make the tool work for your source research!
How does Lean Library work?
Install the plug-in in your browser
As a first step, download Lean Library. You log in with your Odisee credentials. Lean Library works in the most common browsers:
- Safari
- Chrome
- Firefox
- Microsoft Edge
Surf as usual
Lean Library works with all publishers and databases known to Odisee, as well as Google Scholar. When you open an academic article, book or other e-resource, a pop-up automatically appears. It lets you know if the source is available through Odisee. From the pop-up, you click straight through to Limo, the online catalog. Super convenient and time-saving!
Good to know
Lean Library works only on your laptop or computer, not on your smartphone. You remain completely anonymous. No personal data is shared. Finally, the plug-in works everywhere: at home, at dorm or on location.
You get the most out of your source research with Lean Library. Definitely worth installing!
