There are over one hundred libraries within the University. If you are a student you will have access to many subject libraries as well as the main University Library. You will also be a member of your college library, which is for college members only.
Students and staff will usually need their blue University card to access and borrow items from libraries. Contact the relevant library directly to check whether you are eligible to register to borrow from a library.
Recalls will be switched on for Easter Term on 25th April 2022.
During vacation periods there are no recalls so items which you take home for the vacation will not be recalled by someone else. If your books normally auto renew they will continue to do that throughout the vacation period.
Fines are currently being waived for Faculty, Departmental and University Library items - this will happen automatically on a daily basis. If you have a query about a fine please contact the relevant library.
The monthly 'borrowing' statement will next be sent out in early May 2022. Note that this statement is 'for information only'
Sometimes you may be blocked from borrowing. Find out more about possible blocks here.
Borrowing may be affected between 10.00 pm (Saturday) to 4.00 am (Sunday) due to maintenance.
