Given that much of the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ Libraries' collection of print items has been moved to our offsite Collections Centre, PhD students can now apply for a second borrowing card to ensure they can check out all the materials they need. This card is called a PhD Research Card.

To request a PhD Research Card, you must register for a Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ Libraries Borrowing card and select the PhD Research Card category.
