    Recent closure of the library at Britannia Mill has left students isolated, with no study spaces and and no longer able to access essential resources or printing facilities. Students studying music therapy, art therapy and dramatherapy are typically in lectures 9am-7pm one day a week, alongside full time placement supporting vulnerable populations, thus often unable to access alternative sites. The library was removed with no consultation and was always well utilised- reinstate the library.

8:56am on 11 Oct 24 It would be great to have a library in the building we attend. I live an hour away, work, and have dependents. There is no time for me to go to the library at Kedleston Road.

11:50am on 11 Oct 24 I have been at the Uni for 3 years doing my undergraduate, and I used the library often. I am now doing my masters in which my longest break from 9am - 7pm is 45minutes, which is simply not long enough to go to KR for any substantial study time. This perpetuates a feeling of being "forgotten" by the main campus, we are the smallest building, with the least facilities and the poorest food and drink options that closes at 3, useless when we're there until 7. The fact that students were not consulted on this matter when we're paying so much to be here is a disgrace

1:11pm on 11 Oct 24 It’s really disappointing and makes no sense to me that the library is no longer there. I am a music therapy student and all my classes are at Brit Mill. I feel like we are left with very little resources.
