This is the Learning Centre Library ... we are now live ... please do not swear !!!


We are now open, please come and visit us in the Learning Centre at Queens Park Hospital (which will be known as the Royal Blackburn Hospital from the 8th July). All members currently registered with the Trust library will be required to re-register. Any existing members who are not currently registered on the UCLAN system will need to do so. All UCLAN members will now also need to be registered onto the Trust system.

The Move!!!


All staff have been involved in an extremely busy couple of weeks. The old libraries have been completely emptied and the new learning centre library is now starting to look like a library. The photographs below show how the library has progressed, and also reveals one of two comfortable seating areas available.

The library will be open for business on Monday 26th June.

Moving Schedule

Both libraries are currently busy in preparing for the move which will take place during the week beginning the 19th June 2006. Major decisions are being made by both teams, including a recent debate about crockery design, and the positioning of office notice boards.

Both libraries will close on Friday 16th June. Removal vans are booked, car parks will be cordoned off, the female staff members are looking forward to the arrival of removal men in the current climate and have already invested in large quantities of diet coke.
