After last week’s drama, things are returning to normal. The Library is once again open 24/7, visitors are welcome with approved photographic ID, cardless visits for students are once again possible during staffed hours, the Library Café is open again selling hot and cold drinks and snacks. Everything is rapidly getting back to normal.
Check out our new dedicated webpage for ongoing updates.
We hope you are continuing to enjoy your holidays. Most Library staff are back in the office now and all our services resume from today.
If we don’t see you beforehand, have a great break and we look forward to seeing you again when Library staff return on 3 January. Happy holidays!
As of Monday 7th November 2022 day visitors must be over the age of 18. Visitors will be required to show proof of age if requested by library staff.

In the interim period the Library reserves the right to decline entry to visitors, entry will be granted for study purposes only and all visitors are reminded of the need to abide by the Library Regulations.

We will still open 8 am – midnight Mondays-Fridays and during the day on Saturdays and our eresources and 24/7 support will still remain available, it is just the library building opening hours that are becoming a little shorter. On the bright side, the postgraduate study suite is now open as long as the library building.
Today is the last day that library staff will be working until the new term starts on 4 January 2022. We wish you all a very happy holiday and a hopeful new year. Before we go, I just wanted to …
