Joining the Library

Students
Library membership is available to all students on courses at the AUB. Membership ceases when a course finishes. Membership as an Alumni is available on payment of an annual deposit. Alumni members must remain resident in the South West catchment area.

External membership
All visitors to the Library may use the books and journals for reference only. Alternatively, external membership is available, which entitles the member to borrow three standard loan books. There may be a charge for membership.

External membership is open to charities with involvement in arts projects in the South West, school teachers of art, design or media subjects, members of Bournemouth University, Enterprise Pavilion businesses, SCONUL accessmembers or fee paying members of the public.

If you would like more information on how to join as an external member please ask at the Library counter or contact us for more information.
