Research Spaces

Each Campus Library has a dedicated Research Commons space for registered postgraduate students and academic staff. This is a scholarly space within which researchers can access electronic resources; work on their articles or theses; and informally interact with colleagues. Academics can use the space for student-supervisor consultations and for doing their own research. Experienced library staff are on hand to assist with users’ information needs.
The Research Commons facilities are situated as follows in the campus libraries:
APK Campus: on the 2nd floor of the Library.
APB Campus: on the 2nd floor of the Library next to the Learning Commons area.
DFC Campus: on the 1st floor of the Library.
Soweto Campus: on the 1st floor of the Library.
