Noise

Too noisy?

Most of our libraries are quiet zones (some talking allowed), with designated silent zones clearly marked. We understand that sound does travel throughout our buildings, but sometimes those directly around you may make too much noise.
 

 You can text "noise" and your location to 07792 721749 to alert a security officer.

  Alternatively email us: security@bcu.ac.uk (during the day) or CORPSDuty.Controller@bcu.ac.uk (during the night)
