Learning Resources and Technology 

Learning Centres:

Library Learning Centres are located at Clowne Campus, Tapton House and Infirmary Road Campus. These provide pleasant environments in which to study and conduct research, with a variety of accommodation. Substantial collections of printed books and journals are offered, complemented by a wide range of electronic resources including 1000s of ebooks and online journals. A large library of online digitised videos is available for classroom use and independent study. Most online resources can be accessed from home.

Computer Facilities: There are open access IT Learning Centres at each site. The College’s computing facilities are excellent with industry standard software and IT support which is regularly upgraded. The College currently has a Windows XP network supporting a wide range of professional packages.

All students have free access to the internet and email facilities, and the College’s Virtual Learning Environment enables students to access course materials and information on-line, day or night.

Partner libraries:

Students on courses validated by other educational institutions such as Leeds Metropolitan University and Sheffield Hallam University also have the opportunity to make use of their library learning centres if required. Visits to partner university libraries can be arranged.
