Our primary aim is to support students and staff of the University in all areas of their study and research but we are also happy to provide access to many of our services for individual researchers, and members of the local community where appropriate.
This information is for members of the public who wish to make use of Library facilities at the University of East Anglia without borrowing rights. If you wish to borrow materials please see the information borrowing for external users.
