Students at UK campuses can join other UK and Ireland university libraries via SCONUL Access. If you live closer to a different university, or regularly visit another city, this scheme can get you access to a more local university library.
With SCONUL Access you will be able to use the library f
or studying and can browse the paper books and journals within the library building. Most libraries will have eduroam wifi, which you’ll be able to connect to with your Heriot-Watt login (you’ll get the Heriot-Watt eResources, not the eResources of the library you are visiting). Postgraduate and distance learning students might also be able to borrow books from the libraries they join – check the SCONUL Access webpages for more information.
