Library

The Library buildings are currently open on an essential only basis. The Government advises that students should only be on campus when their in-person teaching has resumed, or if they have special circumstances. The Library provides access to a range of online services including first line IT support, access to eResources and academic skills support. If you need help using any of our online resources, you can book a 1-1 appointment with a member of the Learning and Teaching Team or book onto one of the library workshops. You can also chat to us online or email libinfodirect@ntu.ac.uk. For updates on Library services please see the list of FAQs available in Library OneSearch.
