Change to library opening hours from January

We wish a Happy New Year to all our readers!

Due to the university's recent harmonization of staff working hours exercise, the Balfour Library will now close at 4:30pm on Fridays instead of 5:00pm, from Monday 5th January 2009.

This means that the PCs and photocopiers will be switched off 30 minutes earlier on Fridays, and the Library Office will be locked 30 minutes earlier. We don't anticipate that this will affect you too much; for NST Part II Zoology and Neuroscience undergraduates there are PCs and a photocopier in your common room on the second floor of the department, and most of the resources in the Library Office are duplicated elsewhere in the department (except for critical review and project examples).

You will still be able to access the library 24/7 using your University Card, if eligible.

For reference, the library's opening hours will be as follows:

Full term - Monday to Thursday 8:30am to 5:00pm, Friday 8:30am to 4:30pm, Saturday 9:15am to 12:30pm

Vacation - Monday to Thursday 8:30am to 5:00pm, Friday 8:30am to 4:30pm
