If you’re staying on campus over the Easter break, this could be a great time to get started on revision and to catch-up on all the assignments you have to do, as campus is a little quieter.
With that in mind, here’s a full list of what’s open (and closed) over Easter to help you plan your time.
Libraries
The Main Library will be open from 8am to 12am on weekdays and 9am to 12am on weekends until 16 April. It will also closed 7-10 April.
The Alan Gilbert Learning Commons will stay open 24/7 over the Easter break with slightly shorter hours over the Easter weekend:
- Friday 7 April – 12am to 8pm
- Saturday 8 April – 9am to 5pm
- Sunday 9 April – 9am to 5pm
- Monday 10 April – 8am to 8pm
- Tuesday 11 April – 8am to 12am
A list of opening dates for other libraries and computer clusters throughout the campus is available online.

Sport
The Armitage Centre and The Sugden Sports Centre will be open as usual except over the 7-10 April for the Easter holiday weekend.
The Aquatics Centre will be open with their reduced swimming hours throughout the break as part of their refurbishment, but will be closed on Good Friday and Easter Monday.
