Learning Resources Centre (LRC)
The Learning Resource Centre (LRC) is a vibrant hub for study, research, creativity, and collaboration at the heart of campus. Our purpose is to support your learning journey by providing access to high-quality resources, welcoming spaces, and expert guidance; helping you get the most from your time at our University Centre.
Access to Knowledge
The Learning Resources Centre provides a wide range of academic resources to support your studies and research. Our collection includes physical and digital books, online journals, and academic databases, all accessible both on and off campus. We regularly review and invest in new resources to ensure our collections reflect current courses and future career pathways.
You can search the library catalogue, access eBooks, journals, and digital learning tools directly through our Learning, Knowledge and Library Services Portal.

Our Academic Resource Advisors (ARAs) work closely with students to develop research, referencing, and information skills. They can help you find reliable sources, evaluate information, and confidently use resources in assignments and presentations – whatever your starting point.
