Learning Resource Centre

Using the RGS Post-16 library (The HUB)

The HUB is staffed from 8.15am to 4.45pm Monday to Thursday and from 8.15am to 4.15pm on Friday. 

• The HUB is a study and learning environment. It is expected that students should behave appropriately so that we can provide a quiet and productive working area for all users.
• All students and staff must be treated with consideration and respect.
• The HUB is open throughout the school day for a variety of activities. Post-16 Students are welcome to come and study, read, borrow or return books and use the computers. Staff are available to help you.
• Text books are issued to you by the Learning Resources staff for all relevant subjects for the duration of your course.
• In addition to your textbooks you may borrow up to 2 other items at a time. Mostly these have a loan period of 2 weeks and can be renewed if required.
• Activity, Careers and Information notice boards are located within the HUB and provide you with a wide range of information.
• Suggestions for new items for purchase or activities are always welcomed.
• Food must not be consumed in the HUB.
• No mobile phones are to be used in the HUB.

Referencing

Students need to be familiar with the Harvard Referencing System. In the HUB we have booklet guides to help with this. Below is a link to the excellent guide provided by UWE, which you can access from outside the Post-16 Centre.
