"Lecturers ensure you have the support to do your work. I'm really glad I chose LSBU."

At LSBU we fully understand that today's students need to use a mixture of books, journals and electronic materials to complete their studies. Whether you want to study at work, home or the university you can access many of the University's information services via the library website.
There you'll find a large number of very useful resources including access to over 11,000 journals; our library catalogue where you can identify books to borrow, reserve items on loan or renew your own loans; access over 80 databases of subject information and full text articles; find links to the best subject sites for research and read the main English newspapers from the past three years.
Help is also available if you're looking for information on how to get started with IT and available PCs at LSBU. Other detailed information on LSBU's learning and IT support is available at My LSBU, our student portal.
If you've recently left care and are wondering what your next step should be then we could help if you're interested in applying to university and offer you a range of support once you're here. See our specialist details for Care Leavers.
