Wellbeing rooms at GOS ICH

Image
For students and staff looking for a moment of calm from their studies or working day may be interested to know that last summer the EDI team introduced two new spaces to be the GOS ICH community.

UCL Staff and Students ID cards

We would like to remind UCL staff and students (including hospital staff with honorary UCL contracts) of the importance of picking up their UCL ID card:  http://www.ucl.ac.uk/estates/security/systems/identity-cards/ . This card is  different  from the ICH ID card,  which is only of use at the ICH . The UCL card is recognised throughout UCL.    Without it staff and students will not be able to access many library services and will not be able to gain entry to many UCL buildings including  libraries . Staff and students need the card to: borrow books and other materials, to request inter-library loans and to request items which are out on loan.    Without this card they will not be able to use  printing, scanning and photocopying facilities  at UCL libraries, including at our library. Cards are issued by Security Systems in the  Andrew Huxley Building .    The office is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 4.45pm. ...
