Tell us your thoughts on Library 24/7!

(1 May 2012)

Library 24/7 is underway at the Main Library and Queen's Campus Library! Tell us what you think about Library 24/7 and the services we offer during the exam term by completing the Library 24/7 survey.

Until Sunday 27 May 2012, the two main libraries on each campus will be open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so you can access the resources and study spaces you need when you need them in the run up to exams.

Last year, you told us that you wanted a longer Library 24/7 period in the Easter term. This year, the Main Library and Queen's Campus Library will offer an extended five week period of 24 hour opening during the start of the University's examination term in response to your comments.

We will be monitoring Library usage and looking at your feedback throughout Library 24/7 to help to inform future Library opening hours. Complete our short Library 24/7 survey to let us know what you think of the two periods of Library 24/7 opening offered this year. You can also let us know what you think of Library 24/7 on our forum, Facebook, Twitter and using our online Enquiries and Suggestions form.

Student welfare is a high priority for us during Library 24/7. Just because the Library is open for you to use 24/7 doesn't mean you should study round the clock. Please take regular breaks, get enough sleep and travel home safely at night. Throughout Library 24/7 in 2012, our No Card, No Access and No Food and Drink policies will also continue to operate.
