Escape your exams

Listen to music 

Bored of Spotify, iTunes, whatever music streaming service you normally use? Did you know through the Library you have access to databases that allow you to listen to millions of songs from pop and rock to classical music, from operatic arias to alternative dance?

Visit our museum and art collections

While it's not always possible to physically visit a museum or gallery, you can still do a lot of exploring of collections online.

Google Arts & Culture allows you to virtually explore around 500 museums and galleries across the world, includes online exhibitions from the University's own cultural and heritage collections.

Enjoy a film or drama performance

Does it feel like you've completed Netflix? Amazon Prime not feeling so amazing anymore? You can access a wide range of TV programmes, documentaries, films, drama and theatre performances through the Library.

Read some fiction

Forgotten what it feels like to read for pleasure? Some of these databases may help you rediscover that feeling.

Library opening hours

Some libraries have extended opening hours during exam and revision periods. Study space in the libraries must be booked. When using the study spaces, you must adhere to 2 metre physical distancing and a face covering worn at all times.
