Library Access: Leaving Certificate Students

UCC Library accepts applications from Leaving Certificate Students once our own exams end (in 2020 our exams end on May 8th).

UCC Library will allow access for Leaving Certificate students to study spaces in the Boole and Brookfield Libraries until the end of the Leaving Certificate Exams .

Leaving Certificate Students should state in their application that they require access for Leaving Cert Study and select 2 weeks consultation as the membership option. This ensures that there is no delay in processing the application and that the correct fees are assigned.

The fee for the Leaving Certificate Study Scheme is €20.

Please note; UCC library opening hours are shorter during the summer.

WiFi is only available to UCC students

Fill out the online External Reader Application Form and submit.

You will receive a confirmation email containing your reference number.

Application approval can take up to 1 week.

Please Note: failure to complete all sections of the application form or provide sufficient information can delay the application process.

You can contact the Library Services Desk at any time to check the status of your application.

Once your application is approved you will receive an approval email. You will be requested to present yourself to the Library Services Desk with:

• Proof of Identity
• Proof of Address
• The relevant fee
• ALCID Card/SCONUL Approval (if selected)

External Reader applications are processed during office hours (Monday – Friday 10:00 - 13:00 & 14:00 -16:30) or outside these hours by appointment.
