The University of Manchester Main Library is a college library Manchester England located in United Kingdom.
Burlington St Manchester Greater Manchester M13 9PP United Kingdom
The library has the largest collection of electronic resources of any library in the UK. An amazing achievement. Hooray for digital services!
It has the best group discussion room ever. Futuristic, classic and so damn comfortable .
The further from the ground floor you go the more quiet it tends to be. There's also a social area on blue 4 that's great for group work and discussions
Felt like we were at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Wonderful to walk through this beautiful library !
Good place to study. Only problem is that it is not open 24hrs during exams for May 2013. Idiots
More than 4 million printed books and manuscripts, over 41,000 electronic journals and 500,000 electronic books , as well as several hundred databases.
One week loans don't exist anymore. You can borrow your books for a month and then extend that online.
If you need to do some serious studying, get here at 9am on a Saturday. It's like a ghost town .
Lots of books . And vending machines usually give you two of everything you buy.
A hidden little gem that is well worth a visit.
Agree with previous comments - more computers are needed as students are too busy playing Farmville . Also, the printing facilities are outdated and inefficient, and a pain in the arse when busy.
Great library and facilities!
I just love the uni library .
Staff tend to have have nothing better to do that tell you off drinking coffee in Blue G and insist you move to the mainly unclean cafe area
Go somewhere other than the Blue area if you really wanna study.
Get a computer when it's really busy and just chill on facebook.
Biggest UK library ...v.easy to get lost! Avoid the printers, if you dont wanna waste 1h for few pages!
Oh the lovely silence
Get some Modafinil in you!
Get High Demand books out on a Friday and keep them all weekend. Last minute essay WIN!
Is there any way to date the nerds in this building? :)
Less crowded zones will be anything other than blue....
Open until midnight..
