The Parasol Library
The Gibraltar Repository
The University of Gibraltar is host to the new Gibraltar Repository which is open to the public and available for consultation by local and overseas scholars. The aim of the Repository is to gather together everything published by and about Gibraltar or authored by Gibraltarians, making it a truly unique resource.
Various constituent parts of this Repository are held within the collections of a number of Gibraltar-based institutions and Associate Campuses who together form the Gibraltar Libraries Forum.
Visiting the Library
The Parasol Library and Gibraltar Repository may be visited by researchers, students from other universities and members of the public during normal opening hours. Visitors will need to sign in and out on each visit and students will also need to show their student ID.
Borrowing books
The University’s Parasol Library is primarily a reference library, but University of Gibraltar students, staff and Associate researchers can borrow books.
