QUT staff and students, including external students, are eligible to become reciprocal members of many other Australian university libraries under the national borrowing scheme called University Libraries Australia (ULA).

Reciprocal membership usually includes borrowing privileges but borrowing conditions vary across all libraries. Membership does not usually include access to internet and online resources. Membership fees may apply.

Elsewhere in Queensland and Australia (ULA)

Reciprocal borrowing arrangements at other Australian and Queensland university libraries have been established under the University Library Australia (ULA) scheme.

All registrations are current for one year, and expire on the 28th February the following year. Not all member libraries extend the same borrowing privileges to undergraduate and postgraduate students and staff.You will need to register at the Lending Services Desk at any branch of the university library you choose to join.

Registration requirements and memberships vary between universities, so we suggest you check the ULA web site for more information about conditions and charges at the libraries you wish to use.
