Bag Rooms for Session 2 exams

Students who have Session 2 exams can leave their belongings in the following locations:

• E7B Mason Theatre
• W5A Price Theatre
• X5B Theatre

These locations are staffed by Security and open 1 hour before exams start.  

Students are advised to leave enough time to deposit their belongings as there are likely to be queues for the Bag Rooms.

Fines Transfer December 2012

The Fines Transfer occurred on 5 December. This is to transfer outstanding fines from the Library Voyager system to Financial Services. Students with outstanding fines are unable to receive their exam results or re-enrol until the fine has been paid or queried/resolved.

Once the Student's fines have been transferred to Financial Services, they will no longer appear in MyLibrary and therefore when advising students re. fines, you should always check in Circulation (the Fines/Fees History tab). Check the Fines/Fees history and check for the date of the Bursar transfer.

Should a student indicate they have paid any "Bursar" transfer fines, please refer them to the Cashier.

If a student says that they have paid all fines and have any questions about their payment, please refer them to the Cashier.

As always, should you be unsure, please refer to the Access Services staff on x7507.

Available past exams

We have a number of sources for past exam papers:

1. – the latest 5 years of bound papers, 2006 End-of-Year to 2011 Mid-Year, Level 1 Open Shelves at LG712.M33. E9.
Note - this is a 'latest five years' collection so the range will change through the year. Older material will be cycled into the ARC as new volumes are produced.

Additional: the 2011 End-of-Year Exams are expected to be available by April 2012 in both eReserve and in print on the Open Shelves.

2. - 1967 to 2006 Mid-Year - held in ARC at LG712.M33. E9.

3. – the exam papers on e-Reserve, in some cases going back as far as 1998.

4. – if there is no exam paper listed on e-Reserve, and there is a pink 'Unavailable' sheet in the bound volumes, the student will need to check on the relevant Blackboard unit page to see if the lecturer has put it there.

5. - If all above are 'no', the student must contact their lecturer to ask if the exam will be released (the unit tutor may also know). If the answer again is 'no', the final option is to ask the lecturer if they are willing to release some sample questions.
