Weekly class students

Library membership will allow you to borrow books from the Continuing Education Library at Rewley House and to use our journals collection. You may also access subscription e-resources such as e-books and e-journals from the library or from the Ewert House Resources Room. Unfortunately, you may not access subscription e-resources from home. You can find out more about accessing free, open-access resources from home in our online guide.

Even if you are unable to visit the library, you are welcome to contact us if you would like help with finding resources.
