Dated - April 5, 2018
Dear Colleagues,
From Monday 9 April 2018, 26 York Street will be in ‘Exam-mode’ to reflect the forthcoming exam period, as approved by SMT. This will ensure maximum utility of the building as a productive study/learning environment for students preparing for their Summer 2018 exams.
The following adjustments to daily operations will apply from Monday 9 April – Friday 25 May 2018 inclusive, 26 York Street only:
- Building goes into Exam-Mode
- No tours or events during this period with exceptions for high profile visits and events agreed by SMT
- Ensure events scheduled within the building have minimal impact on student study environments particularly on levels 3 and 4.
Exceptions may be made for pre-agreed events and tours and the arrangements will respond to the changing pattern of demand and use as the exams move through to completion.
The Library, Estates and Events teams are working closely together to ensure that the spaces in 26 York Street, when not required for teaching/examination are available as additional study spaces for student use. For March – June 2018 tutorial rooms in 26 York Street have been blocked booked for use as study spaces evenings and weekends and will be advertised to students. Students will also be reminded of alternative spaces available throughout the campus.
