Library membership
Library membership is automatic for all UniSC students, which gives you access to our online collections, course readings and the support of library staff.
Library support
You may contact the library via online chat, email, or telephone during staffed hours. If you need help with research or referencing, book an appointment to meet with a Librarian online at a time that suits you.
Self help resources
Our librarians have developed Subject Guides as a starting point for you to find resources for your study area and assessment tasks.
The How to Guides provide guidance for searching and using library resources.
Course readings
Key resources have been selected by your Course Coordinator and added to Course Readings in your Canvas course.
Learn how to find and access Course Readings.
