Get more books!
The purpose of the Get More Books Scheme is to give you a chance to tell us about the books that you would like us to have in our library collections.
- More Books for your Course. If there is a book that you would find useful for your course, or if there is a book that you think we should have more copies of, then please let us know.
- More Author Diversity. Help us to increase the range of books in the library which are written by people from diverse backgrounds.
- More Books for You. Research from The Reading Agency has shown that there is "strong evidence that reading for pleasure can increase empathy, improve relationships with others, reduce the symptoms of depression and improve wellbeing throughout life." Please let us know if there is a book that we could add to our library collection to add value to your own or someone else's life. Please see our Reading for You page for more information.
Please note: Students can suggest up to six books per year.
We aim to process Get More Books requests as quickly as possible; however, during busy periods there may be some delays in responding to requests. E-books are usually available within one week, while print books can take between 10 days and 6 weeks to appear on library shelves. We will email you when your book is available.
Here is just a small selection of the books that we have purchased for the library based on Get More Books requests so far this year:
