Living Book Scheme
The Living Book Scheme provides free legal textbooks and printed materials to law students facing financial difficulty. Under the scheme students can borrow the latest editions of their prescribed reading for the duration of the semester and are provided with the relevant printed course materials free of charge.
The Living Book Scheme relies on the goodwill of its recipients. This means that we rely on students to return the books at the end of each semester in excellent condition, without permanent markings or damage to the books. Printed course materials need not be returned.
Applications are assessed independently from the LSS by the university department of Student Financial Services. All students facing financial difficulty are encouraged to apply - please follow the instructions contained in the application form carefully.
