The Resource Centre

The Centre for Open Learning (COL) has a brand new Resource Centre available for all lifelong learners to use.

The Centre for Open Learning (COL) has a brand-new space available for all lifelong learners to use.

Located on the ground floor of Paterson's Land on Holyrood Campus, the Resource Centre is a space that's been created for our community of lifelong learners. 

It's colourful, comfortable and spacious, making it the perfect environment for small groups or individuals to study, work on assignments, read, or simply relax and catch-up with classmates. The space has three computers that are free to use, plenty of desk space and a variety of books that relate to the courses we offer. 

You can browse our selection of books here.

The space can also be used for small events and presentations.
