FOR LIBRARIES > Renew Membership

A shelf full of journals

HJNI holdings will be reviewed in full every two years. Member libraries will receive an annual email in October requesting that their contact and holdings details be updated by December. We ask that these holdings updates reflect titles to be retained for the coming year. Members can make amendments to their holdings at any time via the database if titles are changed.

Managing your Holdings

All HJNI member libraries should ensure their library and holding details are correct and kept updated on the HJNI site. HLI libraries should use the standard naming.

Access your holdings details by logging in with your HJNI log-in details. Select 'Manage', choose 'Library Details' and enter the updated information. Give your full library address and as much contact information as possible. Give your full organisation name. Tick the boxes if your library can take request by phone or by email.

Submitting journal holdings information:

HJNI libraries should regularly review and update their HJNI journal holdings. Select 'Manage' and click on 'Holdings'.

Please include as many titles from your collection as you can.

Only add information in the notes field what you want to be visible in the database e.g. PDF available.

Please enter journal titles in the following format:

  • All words beginning with a capital letter.
  • All titles written in full, with no abbreviations.
  • The word ‘and’ should be used instead of ‘&’ even if part of the offical journal title.
  • No punctuation, even if part of the official journal title.
  • Please use (IRL), (US) or (UK) as a geographical indicator where necessary.

You can update individual journal titles and you can add a new journal title to your HJNI holdings by selecting 'add'. You can also select group edit and update.

Alternatively, you can download your holdings into an excel spreadsheet, amend all your holdings and re-upload the spreadsheet to update all your holding details.

Contact us if you have any questions about your HJNI renewal, quoting your HJNI code.
