We are aware that readers may
currently be finding it difficult to find somewhere to sit and study in the
Main and Science libraries. We are doing our best to find ways to help you find
a desk. We walk round the libraries regularly monitoring the situation and are
currently working on a number of ways to help – watch this space.

UCL Main and Science libraries and the Cruciform Hub will be extending their

day, 7 days a week.

We regularly review our library service provision to
staff, students and external visitors. One aspect of the service which was
reviewed via a benchmarking exercise during the latter part of last year was
the loan allowance for all library users. Library Committee agreed in December
2015 that the loan limit for staff at UCL will be set at 40 items from 1
September 2016. This change maintains a generous limit for staff, whilst
balancing this against the need to manage the Library’s print stock and ensure
that it is available for users at the point of need. We have been individually
contacting staff who currently have more than 40 items on loan and will be
agreeing specific arrangements with them.

UCL's biomedical libraries support clinical practice, education and research at UCL’s affiliated NHS Trusts as part of our Service Level Agreement. Membership of the libraries is open to all staff of our affiliated Trusts.
The libraries provide
study space, access to extensive biomedical and health
collections, and training and support. We also collaborate closely with libraries at District General Hospitals
to facilitate access to resources for medical students
whilst they are on clinical placement.
We continue to develop our support to healthcare through our Library Services Strategy and have played a key role in the NHS-HE Forum,
which works to develop connections between NHS and Higher Education networks
and systems. Visit the NHS-HE Forum and Connectivity Project webpages for the most recent news and information.
