All library loans have been extended until 28 September 2020, and we are not expecting you to come back onto campus to return your books until it is safe for you to do so.
We have extended our on-campus services to include a limited number of socially distanced computer desks and study spaces at Drill Hall and Stockwell Street Libraries. These will be delivered in a managed way, in line with our Covid-Safe Planning Guidance and risk assessment, to ensure everyone remains safe.
Book a space in Stockwell Street
You can make a booking for one of our study spaces in Stockwell Street. Choose between one of our 16 available spaces: PC desk (7), iMac desk (1), red study booth (4) or study desk (4).
You must book at least one day in advance. To ensure fair access, you can only book one study space per day. Before you arrive we recommend that you familiarise yourself with our updated information about Study Spaces.
Drill Hall study spaces
100 study spaces are available in Drill Hall Library; 44 are PC desks and 56 are desks without a PC. These spaces are available for students and staff of the Universities at Medway Partnership. Pre-booking is not required, although we recommend that you familiarise yourself with our updated information about Study Spaces.
Contactless services are available at all our libraries
You can still request a contactless click and collect service via LibrarySearch for physical books and other resources. We will email you to let you know when your item is ready to be collected, please do not come before this. Items may take up to three days to be prepared, or a week if they need to be delivered from another campus.
