The Library
The original library, which was given to the college by Charles H Berners, Esq. DL in 1899, was significantly extended in 1998 giving a comfortable, airy building where any member of the college may work, read, think or dream in peace.
There is a wide variety of fiction, appealing to the serious reader, the casual reader, the reluctant reader and the second language reader.
In the non-fiction and reference sections, the library seeks to support all areas of the curriculum and also to provide books on non-curricular subjects, encouraging the enquiring mind. The library subscribes to the major national broadsheets and the East Anglian Daily Times as well as to several magazines of general interest and some specialist journals.
The Internet and the Encarta DVD are accessible from the library computers as is the library catalogue which can also be accessed from any networked computer throughout the college. All members of the college are encouraged to make the widest possible use of the library which is open for at least 53 hours a week during most of which time the librarian is on hand to help students find the books or information they want.
