Library hours Term 1, 2013

For Term 1 in 2013, the library will be open weekdays from midday to 1pm and again from 3.30 to 4.30pm.  It will be located in Portable 1 at the Glenside campus, opposite the common room in Portable 3.

A limited number of books will be available including all High Demand books and a selection of texts for Term 1 classes.  All books may be borrowed for 1 week.

Books may not be removed from the library without being signed out - even if it is only for the purpose of photocopying.

Change to librarian's hours

As of the week beginning 4th February, the librarian's hours will be Fridays 9.30am to 4.30pm.  There will also be changes to the library opening hours - please watch this space for news.

Donate a box to help move the library!

As Adelaide Central School of Art will be relocating in 2013, so too will the library need to be moved.

And so, our Librarian, Catherine Kerrigan, is looking for donation of empty cardboard boxes. A4 paper boxes with lids, or others of a similar size that can be used for library books, are preferred.

Please leave any boxes either with Catherine herself, who can usually be found in the Staff Room, Library, or Art History Room on Mondays and Fridays, or at the Reception desk.

Many thanks!
