Visitor membership

I an just contacting you to ask about whether the Uni of Beds library in Luton is available for non-Beds students to use? And if so, how do you go about doing so? I am a student at Cambridge University but I live in Luton.

Thank you for your enquiry. University of Bedfordshire is part of the Sconul Access scheme which allows students of member institutions to join for free. I would advise you to talk to Cambridge about the scheme but I am fairly sure its not a member so you are able to use this route.

You may apply for Visitor membership at £30 per year all the details are on our website

Luton Library temperature

The weather has been very hot recently and still is but the problem is that it's hotter in the library. There is no air circulation or any type of cool air. People are having breathing problems in the library. We can't do out work. It's gone so bad that people are bringing their own fans. Worst part is we noticed there is no AC in the whole building but when we went into the staff bookable room they were well air conditioned. Could you please fix this.

I sympathise with your discomfort - the staff are melting too. Please do not plug in personal fans as this could adversely affect our power supply. If security or staff see a fan they will ask you to switch it off and unplug it. The problem has been reported and has been dealt with. In a couple of hours the building should get to a more comfortable temperature
