There are four campus libraries where staff and students can borrow and return books, study, connect to the wifi network, use a computer, photocopy and print. There are additional computers on each campus in computer rooms.
Staff are happy to help you access a wide range of information and resources. One to one or group bookings can be made for in depth help with using resources to support your studies.
Further information is available in the Introduction to Library Services video and for University of Brighton staff and students by logging on to the Library Services pages
If you want to use study space, books or journals at other university libraries find out about SCONUL Access which is a scheme that allows many university library users to access study spaces or books and journals at other libraries. Applications must be approved via SCONUL Access and then a University of Brighton (UoB) external library membership application form completed and sent to library@brighton.ac.uk who will advise you about collecting your University of Brighton external library card.
Alumni are entitled to free membership of the library renewable annually at no cost. To apply please complete the alumni application form and email it to library@brighton.ac.uk.
As an Alumni external member you are not able to access e-resources due to licensing restrictions. You can reserve and access the library to collect up to six books for three weeks at a time.
