Havering Library: Home

Welcome to the Havering Campus Library.

The Library team is made up of Ross and the Learning Resources Assistants who staff the Help Desk. The Library is one room towards the back of the Main Building at Havering Campus. We have a Group Study Area and a Silent Study Area, as well as two computer areas.
