Computers are available to all UWA Students, Staff and Visitors in any of our libraries.  Real-time computer availability in libraries and general computer labs is visible via the Find A PC website so you can check if a computer is available before travelling to a library or computer lab.  If you prefer to use your own device the Library provides 'BYOD stations' which consists of a 24" monitor that you can plug your device into to use as a second monitor via a USB-C connection which also charges your device.

Short-term loan laptops are available for UWA students via self-service lockers on the ground floor of Barry J Marshall and Reid libraries. To borrow and return a laptop at these location all you need is your Campus Card.

In addition to student computers, each library has a small number of visitor kiosk computers available for use by visitors with a basic suite of software and limited internet access.  

Visit the IT and printing support web page for information such as installed software on computers and our opening hours for building access.
