Staying on campus over the summer?

Library and study spaces

From Saturday 7 June, the University Library will return to eco-mode operating times. Check the Library web pages for all the latest times and updates.

From 23 June, the Library café will be closed until the autumn for a major refurbishment over the summer to improve space, circulation and usability. In the meantime, there will be a pop-up café at Greg’s Place, open Tuesdays to Thursdays.

The IT support-drop in sessions will continue to run between 2 and 4pm every Monday, Wednesday and Friday throughout the summer. 

From Monday 16 June, there will be some key changes to Library services offered at King’s Manor.

Campus disruptions

• Essential lift upgrade and replacement works means some lifts may be out of action for a while over the summer.
