Keep your HRI out

You may have seen the recent announcement on the VLE about the completed  refurb at Hull Royal Infirmary Library. If you did (and even if you didn’t) you will have seen something like this:

It looks very shiny and new, amazing right? The good folks at HRI have installed completely new furniture and you can charge your phone/tablet/laptop there now as well. Not forgetting, of course the range of NHS Athens resources and a decent set of books to boot. All very good. We don’t think the photo doesn’t do it justice though; for one, a library is for people to study and research in, and as good a shot as that photo is, it really isn’t a library unless you are in it, doing something scholarly, so you should do that, otherwise it’s just a room with some computers and books in, and that doesn’t get anybody anywhere.

Hull Royal Infirmary Library - building works

Work is scheduled to take place between Tue 13th Jan and Fri 20th Feb 2015 at the Hull Royal Infirmary Library. Noise disruption is likely between 13^th and 16^th Jan but the Library should remain open throughout. This work is being undertaken as part of the drive to continually improve and update the environment of the library. If you have any concerns or queries please contact the local librarian Jacqui.Smales@hey.nhs.uk in the first instance or the HYMS Library Team at library@hyms.ac.uk.
