Summer hours at Old College

The Law School is moving to Summer Hours which means that the building will close at 5pm each weekday from Monday 25th May until Sunday 20th September. Unfortunately this means the Quad Cafe will also be closed for the summer, so you may have to travel further afield for your caffeine fix!

The Law Library will now be open 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday and closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Please note that the EdHelp desk will close at 4.50pm each day to allow our staff sufficient time to enact our closing procedures.

The Main Library will still have study space available at the weekends throughout the summer, check the Library Opening Hours website for more information.

Library staff will be available throughout the summer to answer any queries you have so if you need to get in touch please drop us an email.

Happy New Year and Welcome back

Happy new Year all and welcome back!

2025 has landed and the new semester is already underway. Teaching has resumed and the Law Librarians are busy delivering new information literacy classes to postgraduate students.

The Law Library is now open but still on reduced hours until this Sunday. Please check before planning your trip there to avoid any disappointment. Normal opening hours will resume on Monday 13 January. The Main Library has resumed its normal opening hours.

As always, we are here to help you with any enquiries you have about resources, referencing and literature searching. We offer one to one appointments most weeks; visit the MyEd Events Booking system and look for ‘literature search clinic’ and select the option relating to Law. And if you can’t see a bookable slot that suits you please email us on law.librarian@ed.ac.uk.

Warm Wishes from your Law Librarians

With the exam period almost finished, it is time for all of us to get a well deserved break from studies, assignments and work in general. The University will be closed across the 2024 festive period from 5pm on Monday 23rd December 2024 and reopening at 9am on Friday 3rd January 2025.

The Law Library will remain closed for the period mentioned above. If you are studying or conducting research over the winter break you will find our online resources remain accessible via the usual channels, but should you run into difficulties we will not be able to respond to any messages until we return in January. Your Law Librarians will be away from Friday 20th December 2024 and coming back on Monday 6th January 2025.

The Main Library will remain open for most of the duration of the holidays but with reduced staffing and opening hours.

We wish you a restful and pleasant winter break during your time away from the University. See you in 2025!

~ Anna & Rania
