There may be times when you want to visit other libraries across the UK, to use their study spaces or look at their collections.
SCONUL
We are part of the Society of College, National and University Libraries (SCONUL), so as a student at the University of Sunderland you can visit or join other university libraries using the SCONUL Access scheme.
Using WiFi at other institutions
If the library or institution you are visiting is a member of Eduroam, you will be able to connect your device to their WiFi. The University of Sunderland is a member of Eduroam which means internet connectivity is available for staff and students who are visiting other participating institutions. You will need your University of Sunderland user ID and password to log in.
