We will also be developing two new services for staff:
- As we wrote in May, RSS feeds from the Library blog can now be added to your course pages on Moodle so that your students can be kept up to date on new Library stock and services in their subject area. If you would like to add this service to your course page/s email: rbirley@pca.ac.uk. The feed will be added by the end of the day the request is made. To see an example visit one of the photography course pages.
- The Library now has a subscription to Sky and from the end of the month will be responsible for off air recording in the College, having just received the equipment from the ERC. This means we can record programmes from Freeview and satellite channels – but not iPlayer or its independent equivalents, as they are not covered by our licence. So, if you would like a programme recorded to use when teaching or would like us to add a programme relevant to your subject area to our DVD collection let us know – always remembering that although programmes are frequently repeated it is better if you make your request as much in advance as possible. If you have any questions or would like to make a request email: lrc@pca.ac.uk.
We are
constantly reviewing our procedures so if you have any suggestions on how we
can improve, or criticisms of, our services, let us know. Either leave a
comment or email: lrc@pca.ac.uk.

comments on the Library from a
recent visitor who visits and blogs
about bookshops and libraries in
the South West and beyond:
The Library File. Do you
agree? Let us know. We can only
improve our services if you tell us
what we’re doing right, or, of course, wrong.
