The UL and the Squire Law Library have together recently purchased most of Brill’s 2026 subject collections. This is an annual purchase which started back in 2014, when we decided to replace our many print standing orders for Brill series with the ebook collections. During 2026, we will gain perpetual and DRM-free access to roughly 1,000 titles as they are released, which are included in the following collections (click on the links to see the ebooks which have already been published):
Access to titles currently available in these collections has been switched on, and records are being added to iDiscover. In general, records for titles in these collections will be added iDiscover every month, and there may sometimes be a short delay between a book being published and it being visible in the catalogue; it’s therefore always worth checking the Brill platform if there’s a brand new title which you can’t find in iDiscover. If you have any questions, please do get in touch with the English Collections team (engcc@lib.cam.ac.uk).
