SCONUL Access
SCONUL Access is an access scheme, granting reference and/or borrowing privileges to library users working or studying at participating higher education libraries in the UK and Ireland. The level of access you get depends on whether you are a member of staff, or what type of student you are. SCONUL Access provides borrowing privileges to most:
- Academic staff (on open or fixed term contracts)
- Postgraduate research students (registered for a PhD, MPhil or similar qualification)
- Part-time, distance learning and placement students
- Full-time postgraduates
- Students on placement of more than 6 weeks
- Full-time undergraduate students
- Staff of a few higher education libraries not participating in the reciprocal borrowing arrangements
How do I join SCONUL Access?
The procedure for joining SCONUL Access has recently changed.
For information about the access scheme and guidance on how to join, follow the link above and answer the questions about your status e.g. undergraduate and institution. Then choose the Library that you want to visit from the list or map and apply to them directly using the button on screen.
This new system is one our staff are only just getting used to, but if you do have problems please contact us.
EduRoam
It may be possible to access Brunel's electronic resources when using your laptop via another university's wireless network. This is done through a service called EduRoam. More on this can be found on this Connect service page.
