Library Facilities

There are libraries on both our Falmouth Campus and Penryn Campus. Offering extensive collections, our two libraries provide a wealth of digital resources, magazines, specialist material and journals. You'll find 30,000+ titles on DVD, Blu-Ray or to stream; image banks; news archives; business and creative databases; e-books and e-journals, all freely available.

Our Penryn library is open 24/7 throughout the term, with a supportive team of subject librarians, technicians and archivists. Accessible through The Exchange, you'll benefit from bookable solo study spaces to maintain social distancing and have access to WiFi throughout.
