Information Services
Student using the IT facilities
The new Department of Information Services is a merger of the Information Technology Services department with Information Resources and Services. It brings together two highly-valued and effective academic services, aiming to deliver enhanced leadership and management of information-related activity for the benefit of students and staff across the University.
Physical services are located in the IT Centres and libraries on the two University campuses. Increasing the degree of coordination between the physical service points, and by means of innovative virtual service provision, is an aim for the Department over the next few years.
Services offered by our department
- 24 hour access to IT Centres
- Full access to library services
