  • Current and back issues of magazines and scholarly periodicals
  • Help with research projects
  • Seminar rooms for group activities (booked by your teacher)
  • Help managing your computer account

Library Procedures:

  • Please treat the library with respect. Other students expect and deserve a peaceful, attractive place to work or rest.
  • Speak quietly.
  • Leave personal music players, food or drink, cell phones, etc. outside.
  • Library computers are for class work only.
  • Do not rearrange the furniture. Chairs and tables are arranged to minimize noise and distraction.
  • Computers are usually booked by teachers for their classes. If you want to use one independently, sign the list on the circulation desk.

Plagiarism:

Plagiarism (from the Latin word plagiarius meaning “kidnapper”) occurs when a student submits work of another person and presents it as his / her own. Plagiarism is theft. It is not only the theft of someone else’s words, but also of someone else’s ideas. Plagiarism is deliberate academic dishonesty and is clearly outlined in On Your Own (41).

  1. Plagiarism will result in a mark of 0.
  2. Progressive discipline may include conferencing with administration and suspension..
