As most of you are probably aware the
Library at Booth Lane has moved and is now located in E building (the round one) in the new site. The library staff from all three sites worked hard on our last day in the old library, packing books into crates. Some of us were doing that from 8.45am until 7pm and it sometimes felt like a lot longer!! Our Library Manager finished the job
on her own, the next day. As you can imagine there were some aching limbs for a few days, but no time for a rest, as all the boxes had to be unpacked in the new build the following week. We got it done though- real team effort, well done everyone!!
Big thanks to Danny, who helped us so much, kept us motivated and put up with all our unreasonable demands. Hope you all agree it was worth the effort; the new Library does look amazing.

From the start of packing in the old place all the way through to Danny putting the very last book on the shelf in the new Library. There are lots more pictures but I would never be forgiven by my colleagues if I put some of them on here. It was a lot of hard work but we did have some fun and we hope you agree that the finished result is definately worth it.
It's great to see the students back in the Library after the Easter break and looking like they are serious about their college work. We'd like to wish good luck to any students who have exams coming up and remind you that the Library has leaflets, books and staff to help with any revision problems you may be having, such as organisation, prioritising workload, retaining information etc. Just ask any member of the Library staff and they will be able to point you in the right direction.
