Services
In addition to the general services offered in all College Group Libraries, Stephenson College offers the following:
We offer study skills resources and assignment support to help you succeed in your learning. This includes guidance on researching, referencing, essay planning, and time management, as well as one-to-one help with structuring and improving assignments.
These services are designed to build confidence, develop academic skills, and support you in producing your best work.
HE Students have their own study room on the second floor of the library. This pleasant room has additional bookable computers with specialist software, as well as group study tables and a space for students to plug in their own laptops and devices. We recognise that HE students need to work hard to complete their programmes, and we want to make sure that their study environment is quiet and peaceful.
If you are working on a project or assignment as a group, you may book a study session in the Library. A booking gives your group priority access to computers and study space, ensuring that your needs are met even during busy times. Please note that computer availability may be limited for other users during these sessions.
