Situated in the heart of the College, we have large Learning Resource Centres in both our University Road and Regent Road buildings. The Learning Resource Centre provides a range of dynamic study areas and facilities, purpose designed to encourage students to make to best use of their study time when outside of their lessons. The Learning Resources team offer individual study skills consultations and are on hand to help students conduct research and make effective use of facilities. Our team has continued to transform in recent years to respond to student changing needs through evolving our online digital learning resource offer. Study facilities include computers and group study tables with access to Wi-Fi. Additionally, the Study Centre offers a large, open access study area with 131 networked computers accessing the internet, subject specific software and Office applications. This also provides access to printers and photocopiers including colour copying. The Silent Study Areas are adjacent to the LRCs, which house the reference and loanable book collection containing a wide range of revision and study aids. The areas offer a choice of working at group worktables or individually for private study. There are also comfortable reading areas where students and staff can spend time relaxing with our selection of magazines, and a large fiction collection boasting the latest publications. The LRC team is also responsible for assisting with the development of WQE Online, the College's VLE site for students. For our part we shall make every effort to support our new colleagues in making the best of the professional opportunities offered by this post.
