Students

We have 4 libraries at North Tyneside, Wansbeck, The Northumbria (Cramlington) and Hexham Hospitals.  Check information about opening hours and how to contact us here.

The libraries all have study space, laptops to borrow and printers. You can borrow up to 10 books for 4 weeks and they will be automatically renewed, unless requested by someone else. You can request any book on the library catalogue and collect it from your local library.
