There are many libraries at the University of Edinburgh. The one that will be most useful for you is the Moray House Library. It has a wide range of books and journals about education, community learning and development and more. Importantly, it is also right next to Paterson's Land - the building where you will have most of your lectures, where your lecturers have their office and where the Departmental offices are.
From the Moray House Library website you can take a virtual tour, find out about opening hours, check out a map for finding the library and loads more.
