An AI feature is now included in the library's search service Primo. The feature is called Primo Research Assistant and is currently in Beta.

You can find the Primo Research Assistant in the top menu bar of Primo.

Users can ask questions and the tool searches through library resources, with several exceptions, to identify five relevant documents. It then summarises key information from these documents in an overview along with source references and citations to enable deeper exploration and fact checking.  

Remember to ask clear and detailed questions on academic or scientific topics. Be as specific as possible and formulate your enquiry in the form of a question.

Contact us  if you have any questions or comments about the feature.
