Library Hours and Operations from November 20th – December 24th 2021

It is nearing the end of the year, and that means that the University’s library hours and operations for the rest of 2021 will be a little different to usual. 

The Baillieu Library and Virtual Library Services will move to reduced Summer hours from Saturday November 20, and our other branches will remain closed until 2022. Please note that University staff and students can only attend campus if they meet the University’s COVID-19 vaccination requirement. The Print Retrieval service will continue until the end of the year.
