The Library is now closed : the move has begun!

The Library closed on Friday 6 June in preparation for our move to a new, and improved, Library on the ground floor which is scheduled to open on the 8 September.

You will not be able to borrow any items until we reopen. As you can see from the pictures below (taken by a librarian not one of our photography students) thanks to the hard work of College enablers Dave, Sally and Simon and our colleagues in the FLC, Elias and Tendai, who helped us today we've managed to pack almost the entire library (approximately 15,000 items) on our first day so unfortunately we won't be able to rummage around the 500 or so boxes to find that title you've forgotten about.    


However, for returning students all items will be issued until the 15 September so if you're unsure when your loans are due get in touch with us (01752 203 413/lrc@pca.ac.uk) and we'll renew them for you. We will be accepting returned items - currently they should still be returned to the Library counter. We'll inform you here and via Twitter when this changes.


We'll keep you updated on developments but that's it for what has been an extremely busy, and tiring, day.
