Library service interruptions

Bower Ashton Library closure 28-29 August

Bower Ashton Library will be fully closed on Friday 28 and Saturday 29 August due to urgent works. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Frenchay Library Level 5 redevelopment

Refurbishment works are currently taking place on Level 5 of the Library. The floor will reopen on Tuesday 1 September.

During this time, Levels 2, 3 and 4 will remain open as usual. The library team will be on hand to provide support as normal.

Alternative study spaces are available across campus, including The Works, The Forum, Synapse, S Block Study Lounge and The Hive.

The new layout will provide a wider range of study spaces, including a new Library Lounge with microwaves and hot water, and will increase the number of high quality accessible study spaces.

A fetch and carry service will be available to access books while Level 5 is closed. Place a reservation as usual and your book will be available from 14:30 on the shelves on Level 2.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience while these improvements are completed.
