Library Catalogue

The Library Catalogue is the best place to start searching for books housed across the three campus libraries. You can limit your results to those available at a specific campus, such as Coleraine.

You can also use the Library Catalogue to search for many (but not all) of our ebooks. For some ebooks, you will need to access these via our dedicated ebook databases.
