Our students continue to express, principally though not solely, via an annual
user-survey, a notably high degree of satisfaction (over 90% of 142 respondents)
with both the holdings and the various services provided in the library which has,
throughout its life, been in Rhona Watson’s care. There has been a gradual, but notable,

first opened, had come to the end of their useful life, and were no longer compatible with
the UL’s systems, were replaced during the Long Vacation. ■
