This is especially true for what books are available at each library. For example, business books will be at Craiglockhart while computing, engineering and built environments are at Merchiston.<\/p>\n<p>Library tours are available for each library.

You will find these items through LibrarySearch. Please log in at the top right corner. \u00a0We also have<a href=\"https:\/\/my.napier.ac.uk\/library\/study-and-research\/libguides\"> subject guides and research guides<\/a> that have been created by your subject librarian. These guides are designed to help you find information and develop research skills.<\/p>\n<p>Each subject area has a subject librarian. You can contact your subject librarian for more information or arrange a 1: 1 appointment for extra guidance. Your subject librarian can help with finding resources and information about your course. And help build library skills. You can find your subject librarian on<a href=\"https:\/\/my.napier.ac.uk\/library\/help-centre\/my-subject-librarian\">\u00a0our web pages.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For students studying business, Keith Walker is your subject librarian, while for students studying computing, engineering and built environment, your subject librarian is Joyce Templeton.<\/p>\n<h3>Library Services: Books, Databases and more<\/h3>\n<p>We have an extensive catalogue, and it is all available through library search. Here you will have access to all our online resources and be able to locate where our physical resources are. You will also find access to journals and databases. You can borrow up to 30 physical items. Books are 7-day loans but they renew automatically up to 4 months unless requested.\u00a0 If you are looking for something we don\u2019t have, we have an inter-library loan service where you can request books from other libraries.<\/p>\n<h4>Libraries Services: Physical and Online<\/h4>\n<p>At the library, you will find plenty of study spaces: we have silent areas and areas for talking if you have group work. There are study rooms, PCs and Macs, with printers and scanners. Each library has a relaxation space with games, colouring sheets and comfy sofas to relax. We have a well-being collection that focuses on shelf help. If you can\u2019t make it to campus, most of these resources are now available online.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We hope you enjoyed our article on Edinburgh Napier International College and Library Services.
