Finding books

We use a system called Dewey to organise the books on the shelves in the LRC . Each subject has a class number and the books are filed in number order. If you know the class number for the subject or book you are looking for, you'll find it much more quickly.

LRC Search

Click on the link to access LRC Search to find any books, e-books, or other resources for your studies.

Renewing Books

 

Extend the loan period on your books or DVDs and avoid having to pay fines. As long as  no-one else has asked for them , you can renew books and DVDs up to two times without bringing the items into the LRC. You can ring us or come in with your student card. If you prefer, you can renew your books online. Please ask a member of staff how to do this.
