Alumnus Access

 You said

I am an alumni and was wondering if I am already allowed to use the library or is there still restrictions?

We said

Thank you for your enquiry. I have to advise you that the University of Bedfordshire is not open for visitor access/membership for the foreseeable future.

Due to the current exceptional circumstances a part of the University of Bedfordshire’s phased return to campus includes a prohibition on Visitors for the foreseeable future. This includes the library. Please check our website for updates. We have ceased to accept or process membership applications or renewals for external membership. Please monitor this page to see when this will be lifted.

I was just enquiring as to if the silent rooms are availiable to use on a walk in basis or if they need to be pre booked? I haven't used the library other than to pick books up before now.

Thank you for your enquiry. The University of Bedfordshire Luton campus library is currently open for specific cohorts of students as per the current government COVID guidance.

 If you are in one of those cohorts you may visit the campus library at any time during our opening hours.
