Summer Term Round Up!

The holidays upon us! Congratulations to all students who have completed their courses this year and we look forward to seeing those of you who are coming back next year in September.

Here are a few things that have been happening in the LRCs over the last term:

Farnham LRC

• Revision Display: The LRC ran a successful revision display and staff were impressed with how hard students have been studying and using the silent study area.

• New iMacs: The LRC has had new iMacs installed and staff have been trained up and are ready to help you with navigating the desktop and using Illustrator. 

Merrist Wood

• Cloud Printing: Cloud printing has really taken off this term with lots of students using the service.

• New iPad 4s: The LRC has 20 brand new iPad 4s for loan to staff either individually or as a set.

Guildford College 

• Book Swap: Many thanks to staff members for their generous donations, we had a total of 60 books in our Book Swap. Many were swapped and, in the spirit of promoting reading for pleasure, those without a book to swap were urged to take one that appealed. We were left with just 3 books, so many students will be able to sit back and relax with a good book this summer.

• New LRC Induction Film: Filming of the new LRC Induction Film for 2013-14 has been going well. A big thank you to all the students who have taken part and a special thank you to year 1 Media students for filming and editing it.

• Mini Displays: We currently have Displays up for Holiday Fiction and Travel Guides so pop in before your holiday and pick one up!

• 6 BookChallenge: The 6 Book Challenge has come to an end. A big congratulations to the 25 students who managed to read 6 books and have been entered into the national prize draw.

Have a lovely summer and we will be back in September to keep you up to date with all your LRC news!!
