Today I finished my first day back at college since leaving for the holidays in June as I said in a post this morning we are now in a new college, the building I’m in is called the Medway Building, I guess it’s named that because it’s part of the Medway Project, which is to bring new students to Kent and ease current skills shortages in Medway and the Thames Gateway region and support the area’s economic regeneration.<\/p>\n
Anyway the place is really nice and new inside fully equipped with new pc’s, cant wait till the library opens next week as we aren’t aloud inside yet though we have seen some images and read about it and from what we have been told it’s massive, it is even thought to be the longest Library in Europe!<\/p>\n
Longest library in Europe due to open 19 September<\/strong>
\nThe new Drill Hall Library is in the Grade II Listed former Drill Hall on the lower part of the Pembroke campus. The building, constructed in 1908 and originally used by the Navy as an indoor Drill School for recruits, combines the best of modern design with the historic nature of the building. It is thought to be the longest Library in Europe housing learning resources, study spaces, training and seminar rooms.<\/p>\nWe are here to help you during your studies at the Universities at Medway. We can help you find books, journal articles, electronic information and assist you in using information technology. The team of Drill Hall staff are here to help you make the best use of the resources available. We have over 147,000 items, 370 computers and 250 study spaces.<\/p>\n
Resources encompass the areas of Science and Engineering, Social Science and Health Care, Law, Business and Humanities. Within the Drill Hall you have access to a range of support services such as a library enquiry service, IT helpdesk support and lending services. Please feel free to ask a member of staff should you need any assistance using the facilities. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
