Our Level 3 and Level 4 toilets have had a much needed upgrade. Not quite ready to open yet, however, so please continue to use facilities elsewhere in the library.

The Liaison staff areas on Levels 3 and 4 in the Robinson Library are being improved to provide space where staff and students can have informal meetings with their Liaison team.

This is the Level 3 area… comfy furniture to follow…

During the Robinson Library refurbishment, additional quiet study space is available elsewhere on campus for all students to use.

This week’s quiet room is…

Seminar Room 1.43A 1st Floor King George VI Building (University map ref:19)

This room will be available Tuesday to Friday, 9am to 5pm (it’s Bank Holiday on Monday 27th August). Don’t forget that students are able to study in the Walton and Law libraries too.

As you can see from the picture, the new carpet is now in place on Level 3 and we are taking delivery of some of the new furniture today. Toilets on Levels 3 & 4 are closed whilst the final fittings go into place but should be open again soon.

The entrance area to Level 3 (near the Information Desks) will be closed from Friday 17th August, possibly until after the bank holiday (~28th August). This is to allow carpet laying and the installation of new power and data points. The PCs and the furniture will be moved out of the area on Friday and the area closed off although access will still be possible to the rest of the floor and to Maths Aid and the SAPL Room via the main staircase (D)

Study space is available elsewhere:
L2
Main Cluster on L2 and Openspace
The Back of the café (near L2 Cluster)

L3
Next to the window (where the family history microfilms were) –

L4
Area in front of the Information Desk – 12pcs
Next to the window (as on L3)

Due to the L1 flood damage, access to pcs elsewhere is much reduced,

We’ve had an enormous crane outside the Library for the last few days, unloading the air-conditioning units and transferring them to the roof.

Ernie, one of the Library porters took these pictures.

This may not excite you as much as it excites us!

The new toilets are now being installed on Levels 3 and 4 – there will be more of them, as well as better access for folks with disabilities.
