The
Resource Centre (Library)
The
Resource Centre includes Champlain's Library and Media & Learning Services.
It occupies the second and third floors of B-Block, with plenty of space
for quiet study as well as group work.
An
online catalogue gives easy access to over 70,000 books, periodical
titles, government publications, videos, CDs and audio cassettes in
the Champlain collection. The growing and constantly changing area of
electronic information services extends to CD-ROMs - indexes, full text
newspapers and magazines, and multimedia - and to Internet workstations
for research purposes - including both periodical indexing and full
text and access to web sites.
Training
in "information literacy" begins with a library orientation for all
students as part of their first Humanities course. This is followed
by a variety of workshops tailored to the needs of particular courses
and introducing new technologies. Individualized help is also available
for those using the Resource Centre.
Borrowing
Policy
Students presenting a valid I.D. card may borrow books for two weeks
with renewal for an additional two weeks unless the books have been
requested by another borrower. To make sure books are returned promptly
and made available to other students, fines for late returns are charged.
See handouts and postings for current rates.
