January 2012 Update: Catalogue, Carpet, and Books for You

michenerlrc — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 21:24:35 +0000

It’s January. It’s 2012. It’s really winter now. It’s a little sad that the holidays are over but as snow blankets the town we get another fresh start this school year. Some fresh and new items in the LRC are listed below.

Polaris Catalogue Updated

Our catalogue, Polaris, was upgraded from version 3 to 4. Polaris is where you go to search the availability of books in the LRC and renew books you’ve checked out. Users familiar with Polaris might notice that keyword searching is easier now that autocomplete is available and you now have a few options when sorting through your reading history.

New Carpet

From the moment you step off the elevator, you’re bound to notice the new carpet. Red carpet no longer floods the second floor but there’s still some around if you’re a fan.

Giveaway Books

Outside the LRC is a table of old textbooks, novels, and magazines we’re giving away. Take a look and you might find something right for you.

Hours Reminder

We’re now on Winter Semester Hours. Monday-Thursday 8am-9pm, Friday 8am-7pm, Saturday/Sunday 12-5pm. We’re closed long weekends and hours will be reduced during Reading Week, but we’re open every day for the rest of January.

The final exams of the semester will come to an end at 5pm today. Then there’s the marking, waiting for marks, flights to catch, presents to wrap, and some sleep to fit in before the end of the year. Whatever you’re up to, enjoy your break! We’ll see you bright and early on Monday, January 2, 2012 – the Learning Resource Centre will open at 8am.

We’ve extended LRC and A&P hours as we move into the final days of class. Hours were determined by classes, exams, and past usage, so they are a little nonsensical at first glance. Check them twice before planning your day around them.

Hours are always available online: http://www.michener.ca/lrc/lrchours.php
