Joining the library service
The service is free to all students enrolled on any UHI or partner college course and to all staff employed by UHI or at an academic partner. Student library accounts are created at course registration, with the student ID number being the library number. Resources in any UHI library are available to all staff and students.
Core services
The following core services are available at all UHI library/learning resource centres:
- access to books for loan and reference, and journals, which support the courses offered.
- access to resources held across the network through inter-site loan (speak to your librarian), subject to local rules on borrowing.
- access to PCs and other ICT facilities and access to the Internet
- access to online information such as electronic journals and e-books.
- access to other university libraries
Scottish collections policy
The aim of the policy is to ensure that researchers, in the broadest sense, continue to have access to low-use print research materials.
