12 Apps of Christmas

Springer

Springer logoI know this app is very like the Springer website but, if you regularly use scientific papers or journal articles published by Springer, it is an easy way to access them on your tablet.

Most Springer resources are not free, so choose Manchester Metropolitan University as your institution when you log in. You'll then be able to log in with your MMU ID and password and access many more full-text articles. 

You're bound to discover something that you'd love to read in full that isn't included in our subscription to Springer. Use our Inter Library Loan service to get hold of books and articles.

Available on: Android, iOS
