Books
Search the Library catalogue to find books (tab above). It can be accessed from any PC that has access to the Web and no username and password is needed. You will need your Library barcode number (on the back of your College ID card) to reserve and renew books. It is always advisable to check the catalogue rather than browsing the shelves as the Library has two subject classification schemes, relevant books can be classified at other shelfmarks, and you may be interested in reserving books that are currently on loan. Some of your essential reading may have been placed in the Reading Room Collection.
