Welcome to the Information Commons

The Information Commons is a joint venture between Corporate Information and Computing Services (CiCS) and the University Library. Born out of completely fresh thinking about learning resources for the 21st century student, it contains a whole range of study spaces within a single spectacular building.

The IC’s primary objective is to deliver high quality IT-enabled study space and 24 hour access to heavily-used student materials. Demand for seats and books is intense and as such, we only allow access to staff and students of this university.
