Health Sciences Library UP

No AC in study center, gets too hot and stuffy with so many students

Love it here, it's simply the best.

Well stocked library with numerous other draw cards. Meeting/study rooms. Lots of computer access and printing facilities. Reserved selections of textbooks and important study material and a well stocked main library. Includes the study centre for studying into all hours of the night. Perhaps due an expansion though as study space is limited and demand to be in the study centre is high.

Great for studying, and coffee too

Library is filled with a wide variety of information across a variety of fields. Boasting with six floors, each is dedicated to faculties, with the sixth floor dedicated to fiction writings. Printing facilities are included as well as Internet connected computers, together with discussions rooms. The newest edition is the Maker's Space, where your creativity is harvested and you can even 3D your creations!

Good for studying physics and chemistry.

Great Library with five floors of books, you're bound to get what you want or at least a reference of where to get it if they don't have it. Also have links to tonnes of databases and other libraries. The library also features lots and lots of study desks in many different environments and for postgraduates, there's a Research Commons especially for researchers. Definitely worth checking out.

Good wifi reception and very well organised. It can be rather stuffy when their is a lot of students and this can also make it very warm inside. However it is very nice to go and study betwen classes.

I measure all libraries against the University of Pretoria. It is modern, light, well managed and well resourced. This library has tried to be at the forefront of information innovation through several decades and to provide access to staff and students to the resources necessary for accademic success.

Really can't fault UP on this one, except maybe that the building can be modernised a touch. But always helpful staff, wonderful spaces for MA and PhD students - excellent.
