Student laptops

Student library
A library of text books and other reading materials is available through Indigenous Services. Indigenous students may borrow resources to complete assignments and to assist with study.
The library provides an additional source of information but it is recommended that students purchase their own textbooks due to the limited size of the library and range of textbooks available.
The Koori Mail is available to students on a fortnightly basis. These are usually located in the student common room.
