New students will normally be able to join the library wthin 24 hours of enrolment completion. No applications are necessary, but one form of identication displaying both name and address is required (College correspondence, Driving License, Utility bill, etc). Joining only takes a few minutes, after which you will be able to borrow straight away.
Students are normally allowed to borrow seven books at a time for a period of two weeks at a time, and may renew these loans up to three times as permitted (Higher Education students are allowed ten).
In the event that you cannot get hold of a book, you can make reservations. To do this, contact the library, or use the reservation facility on our online catalogue. Pklease note also that where multiple copies are stocked, there is usually a reference copy held in the library.
