Library services

The University of Manchester Library has an important role to play in supporting your teaching and research by providing access to all relevant services.

We want to take an active role in helping you and enhance the university academic programmes by delivering resources and services which will be essential to you and your students. We can also offer guidance and advice to support your research priorities through the provision of a range of tailored and specialised services.

There are dedicated Engagement Librarians for your School who will work in partnership with you to ensure the Library is meeting your teaching and research needs.

You can find further information on Library services via our Library Website and our Get Started with the Library for University Staff guide.

Please contact your Engagement Librarian for any library-related queries or if you would like to arrange a meeting to discuss your teaching/research needs in further detail.
