Assessment Support: Overview

24/7 Opening During Exams

We know how hard it can be to find the right study space, which is why we are extending our Library opening hours during the Summer Exams. 

We'll be opening at 9am on Monday 5 May (Bank Holiday Monday) and staying open 24/7 until the end of the Summer Exams on Friday 23 May when we'll close at 7pm. 

24/7 Web Chat

You can get help and support 24/7 with our webchat service, LibChat.

Visiting Other Libraries

Did you know you can visit other libraries? This means that even if you go away for vacation you'll still have access to libraries close by. 

 

SCONUL

Brunel students can access other academic libraries through the SCONUL access scheme. This scheme grants undergraduates reference access to higher education libraries across the UK and Ireland. To sign up or find out more visit SCONUL Access | SCONUL
