Rowden White Library

Don’t let the name fool you – the Rowden White Library (aka ‘the Rowdy’) is NOT for studying. It’s the ultimate oasis from the stresses of uni life. We’ve got comfy couches and some luxurious bean bags for relaxing in if you need a break. There’s always new stuff to borrow, and it’s all FREE!
