Your gateway to the digital resources is your university login. You will be sent a username when you accept an offer to study with us. Keep it safe as you'll need it to access all online services and to continue with your registration. If you need a reminder or to reset follow this password link. Remember, we will never ask you to reveal your password. Stay safe online and read our digital safety and wellbeing information.

Getting connected

Once on campus, you will have free access to the internet using a compatible device (including game consoles and smart TVs in Student Residences). Visit the Get Connected page for a guide to getting set up each of your devices with University Wi-Fi (eduroam).

During the first few weeks of term, we have a dedicated team of Wi-Fi Warriors on-campus to help you with this so do look out for them.  You can find out more at Wi-Fi and wired connections to the University network .

Learning Resources Centres

There are two Learning Resources Centres, one on each campus, which are home to print books and journals, a range of different study spaces, PCs and software, print and copy facilities and friendly support. You’ll be able to explore these when you arrive, but if you can't wait then check out the Learning Resources Centre tour videos below:

Books and other resources for your course of study

There are extensive digital and printed library collections. Your school of study will let you know about any pre-reading to do before your course starts but in most cases you’ll receive your reading lists after you’ve registered as a student. These will tell you what you need to purchase and what we will provide access to and in what format. Follow the Uni of Herts Library on Instagram @uniofhertslibrary or Twitter @uhlr.

Take a look at Find your Reading video below that explains how you will find your reading in your module sites:

Printing

You can connect to printers at both College Lane and De Havilland campuses. If you are living in Halls of Residence and choose to bring a printer with you, do make sure you have any necessary cables to connect it to your personal computer.
