Library Services
You’ll find a huge range of resources at the Toi Ohomai libraries to help with your studies. As a student you have free access to all of the library collections including physical and digital resources.
The Toi Ohomai libraries have a relaxed and friendly feel. You’re welcome to eat, drink and socialise in our libraries, and there are cafes on site or nearby.
Friendly librarians are available to help you research your subject area. You can drop in at the Research Desks in the libraries, or make an appointment with your Faculty Librarian.
The libraries have a number of study rooms and spaces where you can settle in and concentrate on your work. Computers and laptops are available for you to use and the team can help you set up your own devices too. You’ll have free access to the Wi-Fi network while you’re on campus.
