Do PhD students from Bishop Grosseteste University have access to the Library?
Answer
University of Leicester validates research degrees at Bishop Grosseteste University in Lincoln. Students on these degrees will get Leicester IT accounts and, therefore, they can access our library e-resources. They will also have borrowing rights and ILL rights here.
Bishop Grosseteste students whose degrees are not validated by Leicester will need to join the Library via SCONUL. SCONUL gives them access to the building and the print collections, but not to e-resources or ILL requests.
Bishop Grosseteste PhD students are also required to deposit a final copy of their thesis with us so it can go in the Leicester Research Archive.
