Borrowing Privileges at CME's ILC

The Centre for Macquarie English (CME http://www.cme.mq.edu.au/) is an English language centre run by Macquarie Access Ltd. (http://www.accessmq.com.au/).

The Independent Learning Centre (ILC http://www.cme.mq.edu.au/ilc/), located in E3B 416, provides CME students with a wide range of English language learning materials including books, magazines, newspapers, software, audio and video cassettes, CD's, DVD's and a range of web-based language sites.

Opening hours: Mon-Fri: 9-5; Closed weekends and public holidays.

Regarding borrowing privileges at the ILC here is a response from the ILC's manager:

Normally, any University or CME student is allowed to borrow materials from the ILC. However, there are restrictions on MQ University students in that they cannot borrow -fiction/DVDs/magazines/course books/teacher reference materials.

SIBT students cannot borrow at the ILC unless they are enrolled in an English course at CME.

There are times the ILC may have a special request beyond these rules (e.g. distance students, uni lecturers). In these cases people should talk to the ILC's manager Carol Carpp (xtn: 6108, carolann.carpp@mq.edu.au). The ILC makes exceptions based on the required materials (such as those not as popular with CME students) and the length of time needed. Also, if someone needs access to an ILC resource not available for loan, they may be allowed look at them in the ILC and photocopy there.

The IELTS (International English Language Testing System: http://www.ielts.org ) section is open to everyone under the following conditions:
1. they are all closed reserve - no one can take them home
2. CME students can borrow free of charge
3. MQ University, SIBT, non-card carrying individuals are permitted to use IELTS resources for a $3/day charge.

If further clarification is required it is recommended that the client contacts the ILC directly.
