The Shelves go marching on
January 16th, 2008
Hello again! I’m glad to inform you that the great Hub shelf
shift is nearly complete, having included a massive shift of all of
one side of the Learning resource centre to the other, books,
journals, shelves and all (and vice versa).
The Art books have all moved and half of where they were is now
an empty area, with plans to develop it into a new Work Based
Learning room. The other half is being currently occupied by the
‘Enterprise’ books and ‘Geography’, ‘History’ and ‘Local Study’
sections, though this may change.
Now directly in front of you as you walk in, next to the big
windows, you can find the sections for ‘Careers’, ‘Study Skills’
and ‘Life Skills’, ESOL, ‘fiction’, ‘Languages’ and ‘Literature’
books.
Moving Arts – The creative arts section at the Hub has now been
moved to the canal side of the LRC. The general art section is
located by the raised study bar and the rest of the collection from
landscaping to film studies runs from the wavy bench through the
whole of the canal side. A study area has been created in the Media
Room for students to use.
There will be further moving of the humanities and enterprise
sections – further details will be posted later.
Please feel free to ask a member of LRC staff if you want any
help.

Journals collection change
January 11th, 2008
The journals collection has become for reference only. This will
bring us into line with other colleges and universities, most of
which do not allow journals to leave the LRC.
These are very valuable and expensive resources and our aim is
to make them available for everyone to use. You are able to
photocopy one article per journal issue.
Please feel free to ask LRC staff if you need any assistance in
using the journals collection.
