Book Club - tomorrow

The ILC is pleased to announce the first Book Club meeting tomorrow at lunchtime.

Tomorrow students will have the chance to talk about the books they have been, or are, reading. They can recommend books for other students to read. They will also have a chance to talk about how they would like the book club to be run - what sorts of activities and/or challenges they might like us to set up - as well as having a chance to think of what they might like the book club to be called.

So, grab a book, and come along and join in the discussion.

ILC back open

The ILC has reopened now the Year 12 exams have finished. We would like to thank all students and staff for their patience during this last month of interruptions.

Library available Monday, Wednesday and Thursday next week

The Library will be available for returns before and after school, and during class time (not lunch time or recess) next week on the days there are no exams scheduled:

• Monday 9th
• Wednesday 11th
• Thursday 12th

The Library staff will be supervising X12 at lunchtime on these days, and all the other days the library is closed for exams. You are welcome to come in to play Uno, return or renew books and borrow new items by arrangement.

The space will still be set up for exams, so please be aware that areas with furniture stacked are off limits for OH&S reasons.

The Library will reopen as usual from Wednesday 18th of November.

ILC Closure for the VCE exams

 

The ILC will be closed from Thursday 29th of October, reopening on Wednesday 18th of November.

This is to allow the year 12s to have enough space, and enough quiet to complete their exams.

The ILC staff will have a number of arrangements in place to make sure this closure impacts you as little as possible. Here are the answers to a number of the questions you might have:

I have a book on loan. When will it be due, and how can I return it?
Books will have their normal due dates (i.e. 2 weeks after the day it was borrowed). ILC staff will be visiting homerooms in the mornings to collect any books students want to return.

How can I borrow something new, or renew something I have already borrowed?
The easiest thing for you to do is to email ILC staff via the library email address: library@ignatius.vic.edu.au. If you let us know what you want to borrow/renew we will organise it for you.

Will I still be able to play Uno or Chess at lunchtime?
You will not be able to come into the ILC at lunchtime, but there will be space provided in the Xavier Centre, and many of the board games will be moved across there during the exam period for you to play at lunch and snack.

What if I need help finding information for an assignment or help creating a bibliography?
ILC staff will be very happy to help you. All you need to do is email them using the library email address library@ignatius.vic.edu.au and someone will get back to you with email help, or to arrange a time and place to give you face-to-face help.

Any other questions? email us and we will do our best to help!
