What Will You Be Learning During Independent Learning Week?

Then (the old Athenaeum Library)
And now (the Whittaker Library)
Here at the Whittaker Library at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, we can't predict how busy it might be in the library next week.  It's our Independent Learning Week - will students be learning independently in the library, or elsewhere?!  (Staff might be doing some independent learning, practising or writing, too. We know someone who is!)

Staff and students are reminded that we're still open, and if you're not coming into the Conservatoire, you can still access virtually all our electronic resources. If you're off-campus, then you usually need to select RCS from a range of institutions, before using your usual staff/student login.

Everything - databases, e-journals, and e-books - is available via our library website, here.  Additionally, many e-books are catalogued into the main catalogue system, so you'll find them just by checking the catalogue.  Find the book, click on the link and use the login procedure outlined above, and you're off. Easy-peasy.

If you're puzzled about any RCS e-resource, or struggling to find resources for a vital piece of work, students and staff are warmly encouraged to contact the library.
