Staff and students from most Higher Education institutions in the UK and Ireland can use the Templeman Library as SCONUL Access visitors.
What access will I have?
This depends on your academic status. The following can borrow up to 5 books at a time (not 3 day loans, multimedia material, or journals) from the Templeman or the Drill Hall Library:
- academic staff
- research students
- taught postgraduates
- part-time, distance-learning, and placement students
Full-time undergraduates can't borrow as SCONUL Access visitors and have reference-only access to the Library. You can get borrower membership for a fee - use the "Member of public" option.
SCONUL Access visitors don't have access to subscription digital resources or IT facilities, except free Wi-Fi and a visitor PC. You can use our document delivery service to have items delivered to the Templeman Library from elsewhere.
How do I join?
- Register on the SCONUL Access website.
- Save the confirmation email you get from your home institution.
