LIBRARY AND INFORMATION SERVICES

The North-West University (NWU) Libraries serve as dynamic academic hubs across its three campuses—Mahikeng, Potchefstroom, and Vanderbijlpark—offering a blend of traditional resources and cutting-edge technology to support students, researchers, and staff. Each campus library features specialised facilities such as Research Commons and Honours Study Rooms, providing access to modern workstations, seminar rooms, and essential research materials tailored to postgraduate and honours students. The libraries have embraced digital transformation by implementing the cloud-based WorldShare Management Services (WMS), enhancing resource accessibility and streamlining library operations. Additionally, NWU Libraries actively engage in community outreach, promoting information literacy and supporting educational initiatives within local communities. Through these comprehensive services and initiatives, NWU Libraries play a pivotal role in fostering academic excellence and lifelong learning.
