You can access both the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography and the Oxford English Dictionary via the Worcestershire County Council's online reference services page

  1. Click Oxford University Press to see the options for each resource and click the relevant button.
  2. Click 'sign in to an additional subscriber account'
  3. Go to the 'sign in with your library card' box.
  4. To log in type WOR followed by your full student or staff number, including the issue number e.g. WOR12345678. Staff - you may need to add zeroes before your staff number and issue number to make the username up to 11 digits long e.g. WOR00012345
  5. If successful, it will say 'signed in as Worcester County Council' on the left of the screen. If it still reads 'signed in as University of Worcester', go back and check you have logged in using the 'sign in with your library card' box.
