Information about the Library for prospective students and families
We have one central campus Library, so books, journals and resources to support all Departments (and all Library staff) are based here. Follow our Virtual Tour.
Each Department has a Subject Librarian specialising in the subject area, available to help students to use Library resources effectively.
The building is open 24 hours a day all year and the Level 2 Issue Desk enquiry point is open until 7pm in weekdays during semesters.
We have extensive electronic resources available to students on or off campus. This includes over 527,500 online books and over 26,000 online journals. We also provide students with access and support for over 100 subscription and 100 open access research databases, essential for finding high quality information for your assignments and projects in books, journals and other publications.
Our print collections include over 332,000 books and 219 journal titles.
We have study space for 1,600 students, zoned into silent, quiet and group study areas. Over 500 of the study spaces have computers, the majority have access to power, and the whole building is wireless enabled. We recently converted Level 1 of the Library into a new 115-seater student quiet study area.
