Bermuda College Library Services

Do you have a paper to write? Have you been assigned a group project? The Library has what you need! The library has collections of books on most academic topics, plus journals, newspapers, and magazines. For serious research or casual reading - you can find what you need. If you want a quiet space two conference rooms are available. The Interview room (for just a few) or the Conference room (for larger groups) can be reserved at the Circulation Desk.

Maybe you need to write a paper, but just don't know where to start? Ask someone at Reference or find a librarian. We are here to set you on the path.

Whether you need to spread out your work on a table, reserve a group room, find online journal articles, locate books of interest, or just read the daily news; the library is the centre of campus with something for every person and every topic. Visit often!

Millions of full text journal articles are available through the Library’s online resources. The “Online Resources” tab at top left of this page will link to these resources, and many more. Did you know you can also get audio and video files here?
Circulation Desk
Borrow books and return them at the Circulation Desk! Also get access to materials that are on Reserve, get a copy card, reserve the conference room, or ask general questions. The Circulation Desk is just inside the front door.

Reference Department
Anyone who needs information, but doesn’t know how or where to find it, may ask either the Librarian or Library Assistant in Reference. The Reference Collection, at the top of the stairs past the Circulation Desk, includes many directories, encyclopaedias, and other specialized reference materials. In addition, the Vertical Files, Bermudiana Collection, and Rare Books have valuable reference resources.
Reserve Room
Professors may put material for a class on Reserve to restrict access and limit the amount of time it may be used. Access Reserve materials at the Circulation Desk.
Loan Times
Full-time students may borrow up to 6 books, and others may borrow 3 books. Loans, except for faculty, are limited to 3 weeks.
Periodicals Collection
Many popular magazines and journals, and a variety of newspapers are available in the print Periodicals Collection. These can be found in the lower reading area, where large windows, comfortable seating, and a relaxing environment allow for a break between classes to catch up on news or current events.
