Find your perfect study space

We know you prefer to study in different ways. That's why we offer different kinds of study spaces that best reflect your study needs. Choose from hushed spaces, silent spaces and group work spaces.

The Library is currently piloting a new noise management policy to balance the study preferences of our students. Please read our Library Noise Management Policy and let us know how this new policy is working for you.

You can use LibraryTalk live chat to share your feedback: librarytalk.sunderland.ac.uk
