Thesis binding
Do you have a thesis or project that needs to be bound before submission? At the library we offer a binding service that uses plastic covers and a glued spine, and can accommodate 10-75 pages. It costs £2 per item and the charge is added to your battels. Please allow a half-day for library staff to do your binding.

Welcome
The library is for the use of members of St Hugh’s College only. External readers may be admitted by appointment. If you wish to arrange a visit, please contact the library at least a week in advance.
Please keep your mobile phone on silent mode in the library, and step outside the library if you need to make or receive a call. If you would like to use headphones, please keep the volume low so that other readers are not disturbed.
You may bring bottled water into the library. No other drinks or food may be brought into the library.
Laptops may be used throughout the library, except in the silent study room on the upper floor. WiFi internet access is available in the library.
Books are arranged using the Dewey Decimal Classification System. If a book is marked ‘stack’ on the catalogue, please ask a member of the library staff to fetch it for you from the stack.
Library books and resources are for the use of all College members. Please do not mark or deface any items.
To borrow books, you will need your University card so you can use the self-issue kiosk. You may renew your books online (you can find instructions here). If an item you have on loan has been requested by another reader, you will be asked to return the item. Once you have finished using the books you have borrowed, please return them via the book return bin.
When you have finished working in the library, please put books on the trolley to be re-shelved, and take your personal belongings with you. If you have borrowed any of the books, return them via the book return bin.
If you cause the alarm to sound, you must report immediately to the Library Office. If the office is closed, you must complete a slip in the Alarm Trigger Log (blue folder kept by the office door). If your actions cause the alarm to go off and you fail to report in person or using the Alarm Trigger Log, you will be fined £50.
If you are a member of St Hugh’s College and would like to recommend an item for purchase, please complete the Book Suggestion Form.
If you would like to know what type of materials we keep in the library, please refer to our Collection Management Policy.
