As of September 2024, our Library Service will undergo a rebrand and transform into your brand new Learning Success Hub! Here you will be provided with all the academic tools and resources you will need to be successful in your studies all in one place.
Your Learning Success Hub will be home to the following resources:

Arden University Library Portal
Free online 24/7 access to an extensive digital library containing the academic resources you need for your study and assignments.
-
Academic Skills Support
Workshops, one-to-one appointments, and teaching sessions focused on academic writing, referencing, research, and study skills. Plus, support with developing skills in maths, statistics, and programming.

Why are we making these improvements?
This change will ensure you can easily discover and access our extensive range of resources, services, and support, providing you with the tools and assistance you need to succeed throughout your academic studies.

What changes are we making on Campus for you?
- Many of our courses and workshops will now be provided by the Academic Skills Tutors and English Language Hub on campus, as well as the existing online support and resources.
- You will also have the opportunity to meet with an Academic Skills Tutor or Academic English Lecturer on campus for more personalised support, giving you greater access to the teams and resources you need to succeed in your academic studies.
