Season's Greetings

Best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from everyone in the Information Store. We look forward to seeing you again in 2012.

We are open!

We are open this week from 9am to 5pm (Monday to Friday). It is lovely and quiet if you need to concentrate on assignments.

Please note - we are closed from this Friday until we re-open on Wednesday 4th January. (We are closed on Tuesday 3rd January for staff training). 

New - UEA button

Have you spotted the latest addition to the Information Store's Blackboard homepage?

We have added a UEA button to make it easier for our degree students to access their resources. It looks a bit like this:

Are there any other improvements you would like us to make? Get in touch at tis@ccn.ac.uk, or leave a comment here on the blog.

The last day for second class Christmas posting is...

...Saturday 17th December.

We sell 1st and 2nd class stamps in the Infromation Store, so no need to brave the city at lunch time to buy stamps.

Lots of Christmas cards to post?

First Class stamps are 46p and Second Class stamps are 36p.


So save some pennies by posting early!

NEW! Online Referencing Tutorial

We recognise that referencing is not always the easiest thing to do, or top on your list of priorities! 

However, good referencing can mean the difference between two grades.

We also appreciate that you like to study when you want, where you want. 

With all of this in mind, we have created an online tutorial, with step by step demonstrations on how to build a reference, and quizzes to test yourself. As always, if you are not sure, just ask and we will help. 

To access the tutorial, click here. For more referencing information, Go To Blackboard > Information Store > Help with referencing.

UEA passwords

If you are having problems getting your UEA password to work, please check that it does not include any "special characters", such as £$%*@!

Although the UEA SPOT system prompts you to include these, including them will stop your password from working. We recommend using a mix of uppercase, lowercase and digits.

E.g. Password1234

UEA are aware of the problem and hope to change the password help webpage.
