Think first
Avoid lifting risky items:
Use safe lifting techniques Ask for assistance
Empty book-by-book if necessary
Look out for your workmates
Offer assistance where you can
Use mechanical aids
Use trolleys or carts
Slide objects where possible
Maintain a level of fitness Bend from the knees and hips
Take rest breaks Don’t work at a high pace and rest where necessary.
From midday, Monday 17 March until Friday 28 March, Dovedale Campus Site Scheme proposals will be on display in both the Central and Education libraries. This proposal considers future possibilities for the use and development of the Dovedale site. The schemes give staff, students and the local community an opportunity to review the proposal and provide feedback. A workshop is being offered to College of Education staff on Monday 24 March, 12.30pm in Wheki Seminar Room 302. Any interested staff are also welcome to attend.
You may get enquiries about this from members of the public coming to view (who are lost) and/or staff and students.
Thanks
Isabel

Hi
Please can you ensure that all storage items have their “in transit” receipts enclosed with the item as they are returned to the correct store.
In particular, the receipt shows the collection code. In the stores the collections are shelved separately. Some items that look like serials are actually monographs in disguise.
Thanks
Isabel
