It looks like Spring has officially... er... sprung (?) on campus! #BrunelUniversity #Spring

Libraries bring people together.
Whether it’s through stories, events or friendly faces, your library is ready to help you read more of what you love.
Celebrate reading with us and Go all in this #NationalYearOfReading2026 #GoAllIn2026
Just a reminder; please don't vape inside the Library (and, obviously, don't smoke either).
Security may ask you to leave the building if they see you vaping so kindly do that outside.
Thanks!
Our Spring Break (!) hours can be found here:

The winner of Brunel's Big Read is A Family Matter, by Claire Lynch.
Brunel's Big Read was launched to celebrate the partnership with Nero Book Awards and to highlight the importance of literature.
The book is available now to read online using Libby and your Library login details!
My @brunellibrary.bsky.social Systematic Literature Review LibSmart workshops are coming up next week, in 3 parts. This link is to Part 1 (Structure & Planning), Monday 11-1. There are links in the event to parts 2 (Scoping, Searching & Search Results) & 3 (Screening, Following up, Reporting, etc).
Something I've highlighted in my lectures this week, re the value of getting feedback on literature review searches, is that there are librarian LibSmart drop-ins every weekday at the @brunellibrary.bsky.social Help desk. Usually 1-3pm (with a few gaps). See the rota here for who will be there when
Women's History Month is celebrated every March, celebrating women's achievements and coinciding with International Women's Day on March 8th

I'll be doing the Academic Liaison Librarian LibSmart drop-in at the @brunellibrary.bsky.social Help desk today (Wednesday) 2-3pm, coming up soon. Available to help with searching, data, reference management, Systematic Literature Review and more.
We tend to recommend (and this is very basic of us) Most Wanted as an always good place to start since it is... er... the start and sets-up everything that follows. Is it the best story? Probably not, but it's a good jump-in point.
Our Blind Date With A Book display is back on the Ground Floor!
We've carefully selected a treasure trove of books that we think you'll enjoy, from crime thrillers to literary fiction and everything in between. Just pop-in, pick a mystery book, borrow it in the usual way and enjoy!
The Academic Librarians have lots of workshops and sessions throughout the year. Go to libguides.brunel.ac.uk/libsmart/cal... to see what is available and to sign-up today!
You can borrow audio books and eBooks for free using the Libby app and your Brunel University of London Library card! Whoooo! Go to libbyapp.com or download the app and have a browse!
