The University Library has a comprehensive collection of books and journals, both electronic and print, available from the Hartley and other campus libraries, plus a range of services to support teaching and research across all areas of the University.
Our LibGuides pages offer extensive resource guides for each subject, information on our services and sites, study skills support, information for researchers (including how to publish an open access paper, make the best use of metrics and plan your research data management), plus links to our online resources.
Library Search is our Library catalogue - search for print and ebooks, recall books that are on loan and check your current loans. You can also request books and articles that are not held by the library.
