Discussions are currently being held on the Library hours for Summer 2015/2016 and term hours for 2016. Two session are being held for the Customer Services staff who are most affected by the changes, the second one at the Education Library today at 2pm. The TEU will have a meeting also on Thursday at 2pm in Central Library 308. As part of the discussions all staff are being surveyed on which Libraries should be open on the three days before Christmas.
The recommended standard hours have not changed apart from the start and end dates. The major change is Easter 2016 which is in the middle of term. It is recommended that the Central Library be open for 4 of the 5 days over this period, and Education Library open on the Tuesday.
The draft hours are as follows
Summer 2015/2016
2016 hours
Easter 2015 statistics
Comments from staff are most welcome to Isabel, Joan or Anne.
The next stage will be to consult with stakeholders including the UCSA and Library Committee, and considering all feedback before finalising the hours.
