- Think university, think one library building? ... Not at Cambridge! With over ONE HUNDRED libraries with many and varied collections, the University provides the best possible resources to enable students to excel in their chosen subject. This film invites you to find out from current students what they most value about the rich diversity of Cambridge's libraries and the ways in which each library becomes not simply a repository of books on their reading lists but their own unique space ... Find out more about the libraries at University of Cambridge, and which ones might be useful for you at www.lib.cam.ac.uk/libraries
Gosh, I hope the students realise how privileged they are to be able to access such an abundance of resources! Amazing!
There are truly quite a few libraries, but many college libraries are exclusive to its college members. I wish someday they start cracking the walls and connecting all libraries in one system and let the books circulate.

Actually i am a cam aspirant.
Whenever my mind get distracted i see this video to

Thanks CAM:-D
I am a high school student but this perfectly describes how I feel about libraries.
I got 12 A*s at gcse and thought i stood a chance for cambridge and now after a year of bad depression my AS grades dropped to ACCC and my application would probably end up in the bin :/
Amazing library system. I'm applying to Cambridge for graduate school for physics in 2 years.
YOOO!!! Did u get in?
Ugh I never got squash and biscuits....then again he's at a modern college and going to Peterhouse had its perks 😊
Wow, this is amazing! I love to go to libraries and study, I do like my high school library, except the fact most people use up the tables to sit and chat, and the computers to play games at lunches, breaks and free times. I need that space to study! and when I get that space, the library does not have the required book of which I am looking for, you see, I feel very different compared to my peers, I like a quiet lunchtime in the library, revising work and exploring new things, however my friends like to find a place and chat, they are on the move on the time, it leaves me feeling quite lonely, however, it feels better for me to do work alone as I am more independent with that, but they always interrupt me
@CamTheCurious It's a variety - Fitzwilliam, Homerton, Clare colleges, English faculty library, law faculty library, and the main University library to name but a few.
The university library is the best place in Cambridge... Love to look for the most random books there
@tonycatman
because a paper book does not give me eyestrain. and because being at a computer will never feel like being at work. for me, in any case.
Comments by Sidhesh Patil - I like libraries too. Browsing through various books and picking up a magazine, a short read is relaxing. When it comes to deep reading, I prefer carrying the book home or somewhere else (e.g. a nook inside a building of classical architecture, lots of stone, timber, storybook kind of a building).
Very Impressive.
I'm coming, Cambridge lol
Best office I've seen in my life-like magic😢😚😚👍🏻
Did she just searched the word Dick in 5:01
the ominous music is a little out of place
woah, juice cake and massages!
The first one looks like my college library, St. Edmund's.
OMG!! Do they have masseurs in the library??
Btw, not true that the UL has 'every book ever'. Actually, they have about half of the books that the British Library has (7m titles relative to the BL's 14m; the Bodleian in Oxford has about 10m). This is because a copy of every book published in the UK *must* be sent to the BL, but the university libraries reserve the right to refuse books if they feel they wont be needed.
@CamTheCurious i'm pretty sure this library is part of Trinity Hall
it's my turn
what is the perfect music should lisning if i study
Classical

I live in Cambridge, and I think it's a real shame that the public can't access and browse the UL. They say that you, as a member of the public, can access it if your research requires access to the materials in the library, but you can't browse. Now, I can understand not allowing the public in at all, maybe. But I can't get my head around letting us request access to stuff (for which there is no catalogue) but not letting us browse. Surely it's ok if the public respect the rules of the library as well as the fragility of some of the collections, but even with that promise they won't allow anything like that. It's like trying to get blood out of a stone. I'd pay any amount of money to get access to that place, but they're so bloody uptight.
Paper libraries are bunk. I'm amazed that people think it is going to be like this in even the short term future.
How do you search through a paper book, and what is the point of becoming good at doing it when a computer will do it so much better ? It is not a skill worth acquiring.
