Library support
Guidance for staff and students on using our libraries and related services.
Our services include a wide range of support and guidance to help students use library resources. Access our online guides or book an appointment with an Academic Librarian. Access more resources using our range of borrowing services, including inter-library loan and click and collect.
Disability support
Library Services is committed to a policy of equality of access to information and learning resources.
We work closely with Disability Services and Digital and Technology Services at the University of Dundee to ensure a co-ordinated approach to the provision of services.
Digital and Technology Services have produced a guide to provide a brief introduction to services for disabled users. If you need any help or further information please email [email protected] and ask to speak to a Disability Support Officer.
