Undergraduates can borrow up to 15 items, postgraduates can borrow up to 20 items. Access your library account to renew or check your items by clicking the person icon on the top right of this page.

How do I request books that you haven’t got?
We love receiving your requests and recommendations. Please use this form to suggest a new book, ebook, film or game: using this form.
Where are the printers?
You can print A3 and A4 in the library and the printer/photocopier for Duke Street is in the far corner of the library area. To pay for printing we use a system called Papercut, for more information on this go here. You can also scan to email from the printer free of charge if you just need a digital image.
I do most of my searching for articles via Google. Do you have anything that can help me find library resources?
You will probably notice that many websites will ask for money per article. The library subscribes to a wide range of academic sources and everything is listed via our Discovery search. If you find you are still hitting a wall with your searches just email our main address library@norwichuni.ac.uk and one of the Subject Librarians will help you.
