The interruption of service will last approximately four hours, starting at 12 noon.

We are currently selecting books for purchase for the physics research book collection in the Central Library and the maths research book collection in the Maths Department Library.
This includes any books that are needed for any undergraduate or postgraduate projects running during the 2008/2009 or 2009/2010 academic year.
Please do get in contact with me email Jenny or post a comment to this blog with suggestions. Of particular interest are any new research areas that we may not have a strong collection in.
We need this information as soon as possible – please let us know if you would like copies of publishers catalogues to mark up.
