Libraries

On the Cranfield Campus you will use the main Kings Norton Library. It is open until 9pm on weekdays and is open Saturdays. Sadly though, make sure you get any books you need by then as it's shut on a Sunday! As well as book borrowing and journal access, the library provides you with study spaces, networked computer access and the use of scanners and photocopiers. You can also get help/training with things like writing and referencing, which is VERY useful.

On Cranfield Campus you also have the Management Information and Resource Centre within the School of Management. At Shrivenham Campus you have the Defence College of Management and Technology Digital Library. It's still being developed but basically provides you with electronic access to thousands of e-books, millions of journals and information on over 100,000 books and reports the library physically holds.
