Access to other Libraries

In this section:

The following information is for students on Tavistock courses accredited by the University of East London or Essex University.

Students on courses accredited by these institutions may be entitled to full library access at the accrediting body, or be able to participate in the SCONUL scheme mentioned below. By using this scheme you will be able to find a local library near your home that can also support your study and research.

VISITING OTHER LIBRARIES

Before visiting another library, you are strongly advised to check in advance for details such as location, facilities, opening hours, any conditions of use, etc. Be prepared to show proof of identity and/or home institution. Most university libraries will provide their catalogue online via the internet so that you can check their stock before you set out.

SCONUL VACATION ACCESS SCHEME

Postgraduate students following taught courses at, or accredited by, UK and Irish universities and HE colleges will normally be granted reference use of other higher education libraries free of charge during the vacations of the host institution, as part of this scheme.

Students need to ensure they present their UEL or Essex library cards, not the Trust library card. Visit SCONUL’s website for more details: www.sconul.ac.uk
