Career Info

CSU has just launched a new website which is particularly yummy.
Go to www.chooseacareer.com.au
This will come in handy as we are not renewing our subcription to OZJAC online.
This website has also been saved in our tag cloud under 'youth' and 'careers'.

Due to an upgrade our tag cloud is not displaying properly at the moment but we hope to have this fixed shortly!

Moving Reference to Loan!

Hi All
As you can see we are in the process of moving all reference books into loans. Soon almost all reference books will be available for loan. It will be interesting to see how well they are borrowed. We have kept just a couple of shelves of ready reference close to the desk. The space that will become available will allow the relocation of the research computers closer to the reference desk for ease of assistance to library members and I believe a reading area will also be located here.
