The PGR Research Space in Templeman East is closed this Thursday, 10 December, so the furniture can be moved to its new location in Oaks Study Hub.
The new room will open in the former group study room in Oaks on Friday 11 December.
The PGR Research Space is a dedicated room for research postgraduates to work together across disciplines. The new room is:
· open 24/7 and will be open throughout the winter vacation
· secured with a card lock limiting access to the room to PGR students – but you are strongly recommended not to leaving personal belongings unattended in any study space on campus
· divided by a small corridor from the main, quiet study, PC room in Oaks, so it should be similarly quiet
· the closest building to the Library that could be identified that can offer a dedicated room for PGRs.
The building work to the Library means many adjustments have had to be made to the way we provide services to all Library users. The University takes the study needs of postgraduates very seriously, and the refurbished central core will include dedicated postgraduate facilities.
