Library Information Centre
Hours of operation: 8.15 am - 3.45 pm Monday - Friday
We have a range of fiction and non-fiction for subject use and for general reading pleasure. Students may book a study room for quiet study or use the open space for quiet group work. It is worthwhile learning how to use the catalogue to find the books and information you need but if you can't you can always find helpful library staff to assist you. We expect you to respect other users of the library by not bringing in hot food.
The following outlines the services we provide.
ID cards: These are available from the library in the first few weeks of term. You can also come into the library and have your photo taken on the 'Welcome to College' days. Your ID card enables you to borrow books and laptops.
Printing, Photocopying, Scanning can also be done by students in the library and your ID card is needed for this also.
Borrowing limits: You can borrow up to 15 items for a 3 week loan period. You can renew your items twice, more if necessary. Reserve items are overnight loans only.
