Entrance to the Library

When entering the Library, all readers will need to tap a reader’s card on a card reader at the entrance to the Library.  This card will also function as a photocopy card and those photocopying cards already issued will be automatically programmed to act as ID cards.

If you want to access the Library and do not already have a photocopy card, please report to the Enquiry Desk, where staff will be happy to issue one to you.
