Come and explore what the Library has to offer during ECU’s two-week Orientation program.
Library Orientation activities run across both Orientation Weeks (14–25 July), with sessions designed to help you get ready for uni life.
You’ll find workshops to build your study skills, spaces to explore, and support to help you settle in.
Each Campus Library is designed to support your study journey, offering dedicated spaces, wi-fi, collaborative tech, and friendly staff on hand to assist.
The Library is also your central hub for academic support and resources—both in person and online. You’ll have access to a wide-ranging collection of books, eBooks, journals, and specialist databases featuring current and global research.
Whether you're on campus or studying remotely, the Library connects you with the tools and expertise to help you succeed from day one.
For the first time, we’re offering guided tours of our Campus Libraries, so you can get to know the spaces, technology and services that will support your learning.
