From PCs to periodicals and coursework to coffee breaks, LJMU’s Learning Resource Centres provide access to all the resources and student support services you’ll need to succeed in your degree and have a great postgraduate experience.
LJMU has three Learning Resource Centres, with one based in each of the City, Mount Pleasant and IM Marsh campuses. This means that whatever and wherever you are studying at the University you are never far from one of these Centres, and with 24/7 opening hours during semesters, you can pop in anytime, day or night, at a time that’s most convenient for you.
The Centres combine the best aspects of traditional libraries with everything you’d expect from a modern university: there’s Wi-Fi access throughout, loads of computers, books, periodicals and journals as well as online resources. Sofas, newspapers and on-screen information systems also help to create spaces where you can relax after lectures or studying.
Every subject, every topic, every interest is covered in the libraries – in formats ranging from DVD and CD, to journals, satellite TV programmes, magazines, and of course books. Increasingly academic publishing and comment takes place online and LJMU’s electronic library gives you access to 22,000 electronic journals, newspapers, conference proceedings, maps, legal documents and much more.
