Mutual Support Agreement

All full members of the Consortium participate in the Mutual Support Agreement. The Agreement provides that in the event of a disaster at a member library, other Consortium libraries will endeavour to provide study space for students from the affected library, providing physical access in line with the arrangements normally offered under the SCONUL Research Extra, UK Libraries Plus and/or M25 Access and Borrowing schemes. The Scheme can be invoked for a month and is designed to allow staff at affected libraries to prioritise disaster recovery by providing their students access to space and resources.
