Welcome!

Swansea University's Libraries & Archives can support you in many ways. One way is through the online Library Guides: libguides.swansea.ac.uk. 

The guides will help you find subject resources and are packed full of quality, academic information. They contain contact details for your Subject Librarians, who can help you find materials for your assignments, dissertations and research.  They can also help with APA, MHRA, OSCOLA and Vancouver referencing.

You can contact your Subject Librarians by:

  • Email – you will find the contact email for your subject team on your subject’s Library Guide – see libguides.swansea.ac.uk
  •  Using our Ask a Librarian online chat, available Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm. Just click on the blue Ask a Librarian link found on libguides.swansea.ac.uk

  • Booking an online appointment using Zoom. You’ll find instructions for how to set up Zoom, together with the link to ‘Make an online appointment (Zoom)’ on your subject’s library guide - see libguides.swansea.ac.uk
     

Our libraries are open but, due to the requirement to maintain social distancing, and in line with University policy, access is restricted to essential activities which must be pre-booked, for example the Request and Collect book service. For information about how to access our library services safely, please go to: https://www.swansea.ac.uk/library/covid19/
