Sconul Access

Can you let me know if the UOB is a member of the SCONUL access scheme as I have a student here at the Birmingham Campus who wishes to use the Leicester campus. I don't know how that would work in practice, with out students only having lectures at this facility.

Thank you for your enquiry. University of Bedfordshire is a member of the SCONUL ACCESS scheme. All University of Bedfordshire students who are in good standing with the library service may apply to use the Sconul Access scheme. The level of membership is dependent on the student's level of study.

All the details are on our website (always a good first stop for information)

Application for authorisation is an online automated process and needs to be done first. Once the email of authorisation has arrived the student uses that to authenticate each application to institutions ton the scheme. All students are advised to check with each institution what is required locally as they all vary.
