Exam time!

We are now entering the Dreaded Exam Period (cue rising organ music).  The Dreaded Exam Period means three things:

1) Fines double for the duration of the exam period.  Instead of €0.60, fines on overdue material will be €1.20. This is not a cynical revenue generating exercise by the library, this is a genuine attempt to keep books in circulation and deter students from hogging texts that are in demand.  We have been contacted by a number of students who have reservations on overdue books that show no signs of coming back, yet. Everyone will understand how frustrating this is, so think of the doubled fine as an incentive to be a good library user. 

2) As detailed elsewhere, alternatively, as detailed below this post, we open Sundays and Bank Holidays for a limited period of time

3) In response to the increased number of queries: Most previous years' exam papers can be on Moodle at this link.  You will need to login to access it.  Actually, just checking on Moodle there and I see that the link is prominently displayed in the site news section.  Exam papers are split by category - undergraduate arts, undergraduate business, postgraduate arts, postgraduate business, law and ICM/DBS diplomas/Springboard courses.  I stress,the papers are you looking for are probably there, but not necessarily.

Good luck with your exams!
