Using other libraries

You can visit and borrow material from other academic libraries, near to where you live or work by registering to use the SCONUL Access scheme. 

This is a free scheme allowing full time postgraduate, part-time, distance and placement students to borrow material from other university libraries. Reference only access is also available for undergraduate full-time students.

If you need material from other academic libraries, you may wish to investigate Inter-Library Loan.
