Library

The College is fortunate to have its own dedicated library run by a friendly team of staff. The Library is bright, modern and well equipped.

We promote a calm and mature learning space and always encourage students to respect others when in the Library and not to disturb others who are working.

The Library staff can assist students with any aspect of the library learning resources. If you are unable to find what you are looking for they may be able to order certain resources for you.
