Last evening opening, Thursday 11th December

As evening classes at Central College Glasgow finish for the Christmas break on Thursday, 11th December, this will also be the last late evening opening of The Learning Curve of 2008.

From Monday 15th December, The Learning Curve will close at 4.45 pm. Late opening will resume on Monday, 5th January when the College re-opens.

E-books are go...

Following our recent successful trial of e-books we have decided to invest in several texts which will be available to you online.

Some of the benefits of e-books are:

• Multiple readers can view an e-book simultaneously
• E- books can be downloaded using Adobe Reader to a USB or laptop for a designated period (usually 7 days maximum)
• Up to 5% of the book can be copied or printed out (the system calculates the percentage in line with copyright legislation) per user
  

To access e-books go to http://www.dawsonera.com and log in using your id and password. Remote access is also available 24/7 via an Athens password.

If you don’t already have a login or an Athens password, please contact The Learning Curve Enquiry Desk.

If you need further help in using the system, please contact us at the Enquiry Desk on 0141 271 6240.

Help with logging on to the College computer network

If you have problems logging on successfully to the College network, ask a member of The Learning Curve team for assistance.

Staff can provide advice with logging in and, if necessary, get technical help with updating passwords or solving persistent problems.

You can contact Learning Curve staff through the enquiry desk by the library entrance, or by flagging them down when passing.
