Library Services

As well as the computing facilities, BITE students get access to learning resource centres which house a myriad of different literature including text books and journals. The library has been carefully selected to cover the specific areas related to the courses run at BITE. 

Any registered student of BITE can use the library facilities. The students need to register their details with the librarian in order to do so. To register, the students need to produce their ID cards and fee receipts. The library is open in normal Institute opening hours.




BITE has a rich, cohesive and focused library service. The Institute itself is focused around its mission in developing the e-community; this means that because of the constant change and new developments in the e-commerce area up to date books are vital for research and further development. Students enrolled on UEL programmes at BITE are able to access the library and resource facilities of our partner: the University of East London.
