LIBRARIES
COLLEGE LIBRARY. This year the College Library added 857 books to the collection, of which 40 were donations. This represents the highest number of purchased books added to the Library since 2007 (the point at which our electronic records begin). We have also seen the highest number of books borrowed in a year, with a 15% increase in borrowing on last year. The start of Lent Term saw two significant developments in the College Library: the move to Alma, the new University-wide Library System, and the installation of a brandnew Self-Service kiosk.
