As we start into Semester 2, we would ask students to ensure they are familiar with the Guidelines for Using Study Environments. We have a shared responsibility to maintain safety measures when using these spaces to protect student health & wellbeing.
Click & Collect, Click & Deliver, Scan & Send Services: We are unable to fulfill requests for materials from the RCSI Library, BH Collection during Level 5 restrictions.

The safety and wellbeing of students and staff underpins library service plans for the 2020/21 academic year. For returning students you will notice changes both to how we deliver services and to the physical study environments as we implement the necessary physical distancing measures.
