Health Sciences Library
You can still borrow from the Health Sciences Library if you're based at Camperdown!
If you like the look of an item from Health Sciences, simply request that it be sent to a library at Camperdown (your request will not be processed if there are available copies of the item in any of the libraries at Camperdown).
You will be notified via your University email when the item is ready to pick up. More information on requesting items...

Teach Yourself Online!
We realise you won't always be able to make it to the library to ask for help - that's why we've devised a range of online tools to improve your research and information skills.
We also administer a subject called Research Skills for the Health Sciences - RSHS1000. Look for this subject next time you login to USYD eLearning (formerly WebCT).
I Can't Find That Book!
Call numbers tell you where books are located. Dots, spaces and letters are all important things to note!
