The College Library lies at the heart of the newly-developed Evolution House Learning and Research Zone, providing an innovative environment for learning, teaching and research resources.
The library collection consists of some 85,000 books and more than 350 periodical subscriptions along with videos and DVDs, maps, and slides. All aspects of the College’s teaching and research are covered, with an emphasis on contemporary issues and practice.
Evolution House is wireless networked throughout and an IT support desk is located within the library. Laptops may be borrowed for use anywhere within the Learning Zone, allowing access to a wide range of online and networked information sources.
For further information about the College Library, and for access to our online catalogue and links to electronic information, visit the Library eportal webpages.
Edinburgh College of Art gratefully acknowledges the generous gift from the Robertson Trust for the development of the Learning and Research Zone.
