'The Library Resource Centre is delighted with the new equipment. As well as offering higher specifications and upgraded software, the flat screens and box PCs create a more spacious and attractive environment for learners.'

This has been an extremely successful year for the LRC with high satisfaction rates from College users in internal surveys and an excellent report from the British Council Inspection in January 2005. In the cross-college survey 2005, there was a 92% satisfaction rate with the LRC and in the LRC Exit Survey, they attained 90% satisfaction with IT provision and 98% found the LRC staff helpful. In the British Council Inspection Report the LRC was commended as 'exemplary in the sector' and it was noted that 'students were enthusiastic in their comments both about the environment and the friendliness of the staff'.
