Collection strengths at Peninsula Library

Peninsula Library, one of eight branch libraries of the Monash University Library, supports and resources the learning, teaching and research activities of staff and students at the university's Peninsula campus. Peninsula Library has collections strengths in:

  • nursing
  • health sciences
  • early childhood and primary education
  • business
  • community emergency health and paramedic practice
  • physiotherapy
  • occupational therapy

There is an excellent collection of teaching materials, including children's picture, fiction and non-fiction books, educational CD-ROMs, kits, cassettes, CD's, musical instruments, pictures, puppets, puzzles and science equipment. Students on education rounds or preparing lesson plans are encouraged to use these teaching materials.

Another notable collection is the Vera Bradford Music Collection, consisting of books on the history of music, musical scores and librettos, sheet music and orchestral sets of music. The conditions under which this collection was donated to the library mean that local music groups can access the collection by inquiring at the loans desk. Monash University students may also borrow some items.

A wide range of books, videos and journals (both paper and electronic) is available. The electronic collection of the Monash University Library can be accessed via the resources page or by searching the catalogue. Access to many electronic resources is restricted to Monash University staff and students.
