If you’re thinking about coming to the University of Glasgow, have a look at our leaflet specially for prospective students.

Where is it and how do I get in?

The University Library is located opposite the Fraser Building on Hillhead Street (view our location on Google Maps), view the Library opening hours.

Your registration card is also your Library card, so once you’re registered you can start using the Library immediately.  At the entrance, just swipe the card at the turnstiles. Staff at the Welcome Desk near the entrance can help you with general enquiries.
