Visit the Library

The Library is the home of Library and Learning Services, bringing together the spaces, expertise, and materials that support the University community in their learning, teaching, and research journeys.

We provide our students with plenty of support during their studies, including online searching for Library resources, services for study and development support, and a team who provide disability and neurodiversity support.

We have a large collection of archives and special collections for students, staff and researchers to use and make our research publicly available and reusable through open research.
