CATH Shiel is unsure how to complete her university course after January 31, with the University of Sunshine Coast still investigating how to provide University of Southern Queensland students after-hours access to their library.

Ms Shiel is studying a Graduate Diploma of Teaching with USQ.

With young children and supporting her partner's business, Ms Shiel uses the USQ's Fraser Coast library in the evenings and in the morning.

The looming transition of the USQ campus to the University of Sunshine Coast could mean Ms Shiel's access to the library is temporarily declined, leaving her without internet access.

"It's impossible to study at home," she said.

"I heavily rely on being able to get into the library after my kids go to bed after 8pm and sit down and study for a few hours with really god internet access.

"Without that access I can't get my study done, I'll fall behind and I'll fail."

USC deputy vice-chancellor professor Birgit Lohmann said the issue was being investigated.

"USQ students will have access to the library during normal business hours," she said.

"USC is currently investigating ways to provide after-hours access to those USQ students who require it."

Ms Shiel has approached the Fraser Coast Regional Council to investigate building a 24-hour education hub.
