Dear Christ College Community,

Congratulations on getting through week 1 of learning in lockdown! Due to the extension of the lockdown until Friday 30th June, the College site is remaining closed for the next couple of weeks. We have made some adjustments to help you with library resources – read on to find out more.

Please take care to read through the important information below:

Library Access

  • HDR students function as normal with scanning and inter-library loan affordances;
  • The maximum amount of pages per request is 50 pages;
