And well done to everyone who has booked a PC online this week!

Tired of queuing for a PC?

Book it in advance. And be in with a chance of winning an easter egg while you are at it!

At this time of year the library PCs are very very busy. Did you know you that you can book a PC for an hour through the library catalogue. It's as easy as this:

• Search the catalogue for the PC
• Click on "book this item" icon
• Login with your name, student number and PIN
• Choose the Start & Finish times

Remember! Before you log off - book a PC for the next time you will need it!
Book a PC online and be in with a chance of winning an Easter Egg. Raffles will take place over the next week.

*If you don't know your PIN please ask us at the library desk.
*Bookings should be for one hour and should start at the top of the hour, e.g. 1.00, 2.00, 3.00... This will maximise the number of students who can use a PC in any day.

Survey results

Last week we asked you about noise and the library. We wanted to know whether you are happy with the new noise zones in the library. The results of the survey are now available on the library noticeboard.

In short, over 3/4 of you liked the idea of the noise zones BUT the vast majority of you felt that the noise levels in each zone are too high. Some of you made suggestions about how we might improve things. We plan to discuss the issue in more detail at the Library User Committee meeting next week.

If you would like you views to be heard at that meeting please discuss it with your class rep or to the Students' Union. Otherwise you can email us at libraryinfo@itb.ie.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the survey!
