Your campus library hours are now extended until the end of Trimester 2

We know it’s news many of you have been waiting for – our libraries at the Burwood and Waurn Ponds campuses will now be open 24/7 for the rest of Trimester 2! Plus, Waterfront Campus will be open until midnight every night. If you need a quiet spot for a late-night study session, we’ve got you covered. 

What areas of the library will be accessible? 

Burwood Campus

Waurn Ponds Campus

Waterfront Campus

Warrnambool Campus

Will any staff be around overnight? 

A security guard will be on-site to ensure your safety. 

Can I check out/return items overnight? 

You can use the Deakin Borrow app or the self-checkout near the Service Desk to check out resources. As usual, you can use the return slot on the outside of the building to return resources at any time. 

Will rooms/booths be bookable overnight? 

No – study rooms and booths will be available on a first-come, first-served basis outside of staffed hours. 

If you have any other questions about the 24/7 access at the library, please don’t hesitate to contact us. 

At Deakin, your safety is our priority

When you’re on campus, our Deakin Security team is working hard to keep you safe. They can escort you to your car at night or help you if you see something that makes you uncomfortable. All our officers are also trained first-aid responders.

There’s some easy steps you can take to maximise your personal safety while on campus:
