Library Support for Students

You can access the Library 24/7, 365 days a year (the building is on access control (student ID card) between 8pm and 8am).

Once you’re fully enrolled on your course, you’ll automatically become a member of the University Library. The Library can be found in the Learning Hub at Waterside.

Your Student ID card is also your library card.

You can log in and manage your Library account through NELSON, our discovery tool for resources.
