The AMC Library houses a collection of recreational fiction available for
loan to all UTAS staff and students. This collection supports many of our
students that who live on-campus for short periods of time and desire some light reading. UTAS staff in Launceston are also becoming aware of this
collection.
The collection is searchable via the UTAS Library catalogue in
many ways. If you are not based at the AMC or Launceston Campuses, you can
request items via the Library’s Item Request forms.
1. Browsing a list of titles.
From the Library catalogue, choose the Dewey Call Number search option.
