Increased Library Access for DIT Staff and Students



DIT staff and students can now visit the libraries at IT Blanchardstown and IT Tallaght by simply producing their DIT ID cards.  No letter of introduction is required.
They may visit the libraries and use the print materials there for reference purposes.  Whilst there, they may also access DIT online library journals and databases using the Eduroam service on their own mobile device, laptop, mobile phone etc.
For more information see

Books cannot be borrowed and the other libraries may have to refuse admission during busy times, such as during exams.

In return, ITB and ITT staff and students can visit DIT libraries.  The same arrangements apply as above.
Instructions about Eduroam for ITT users are at 

The increased access is a pilot and will be kept under review.
