The Bodleian Libraries provides a wide range of services and facilities to support your research, teaching and learning needs. These range from comprehensive user education programmes, document supply and photocopy services through to information on the use of IT. Details are provided for disabled access.
The Bodleian Libraries are working towards the development of standards to be implemented across individual libraries for many of these services. However, some services and facilities will differ. For example, the Bodleian Library remains a reference only library whereas many other libraries offer lending services. Check the individual libraries' web pages for more information on library-specific services.
