Information for Distance Learners and Taught Postgraduates

This page applies to taught postgradates and students who are only campus occasionally such as Apprentices and those studying Advanced Veterinary Nursing certificates

We offer the following services to help you:

• Extended book loans. Normally all loans are issued to postgraduates and distance learners for three weeks in the first instance, then renew automatically each day. The item is always due back in three weeks unless someone else requests the item, you have had the item for twelve months or your membership expires. You are allowed up to 30 items on loan at any one time.
• There are lots of ways to get individual help as well
• Checking what books you have on loan
• Using other libraries (SCONUL Access)  
• Obtaining journal articles and books that the library does not have - Document Supply 
• Library opening hours
• Scanned copies of print book chapters and journal articles

Support for finding information

We are very happy to help you to find information for your work. We can talk you through doing a search using Teams, answer your queries by email or llive chat or give you personal tuition when you are at university, whichever suits your needs best. Just contact us.

If you are trying to access information off campus and having difficulties you may find the Finding information section useful if we are not available.
