Hi,

Would it be at all possible to add the Journal of Taphonomy to the library collection? It is a valuable resource for my current PhD research. It also contains several publications by UQ archaeology staff.

Cheers.

Hello,

I was really surprised and disappointed to find out that the 24 hour access at the biological sciences library will be stopped by the end of this week. I understand that the end of exams marks the end of the uni semester /year, but what about us all PhD students who don't really have semesters but work continuously for 3-4 years?? I really enjoy this space: it is safe, easily accessible, very pleasant to work in, well ventilated, and the 24/7 access makes it very suitable when we are in the writing up phase of the PhD, because inspiration and writing-flow is usually unpredictable: you need to catch it when it's here! It is difficult to start writing when you know that you will have to leave at a set time. Especially as early as 5pm. I was told that other libraries have 24hr access, but I'm yet to find out where and if it is as easy as the BSL.
Please consider maintaining these great flexible hours, even if only for 1-2 floors of the library.

Thank you very much,

Veronique

Hi,
We currently have collaborators in Adelaide and recently they have been publishing in Drug Testing and Analysis - a journal which we aim to publish in as well. Are we able to get access to this journal?
Thanks

I recently returned the following book acquired through ILL:

Henderson, Lizanne, and Edward J. Cowan
Scottish fairy belief.
East Linton, Scotland : Tuckwell Press, 2001
ISBN: 1862321906 9781862321908
OCLC Number: 48571284

I will be needing this book again, and I suspect others will find it useful as well. Rather than paying for inter-library loan each time, perhaps the library could acquire it.

Best

Hello,
I really love the increasing availability of ebooks, especially with regard to new acquisitions. I'd love to be able to enjoy the same level of access to ebooks of titles that the university has print editions of. For example, this title - https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=z4lLEBqTP2wC&ganpub=k3709... is available as an ebook, but it is also on loan for a while. I don't want to recall the book - it appears to have been borrowed very recently, and recalling books causes an inconvenience. I always feel like I'm being mean when I do so. I'd rather both myself and the person who has the book now enjoy it, and an ebook edition would do the trick. I know that not everyone likes or can use ebooks, but ebooks seem like a nice backup option for print editions. Does the library have any plans to purchase ebook licenses for titles that are available in print?

I was appalled at the state of the Biological Sciences Library this afternoon. Both the inside and outside areas were strewn with rubbish because the bins were overflowing. I understand that it is a Sunday, but the bins need to be emptied more regularly, especially during peak study times.
