Some driv<strong>er</strong>s should change their attitude<br />

and don't forg<strong>et</strong> that they are s<strong>er</strong>vice provid<strong>er</strong>s.<br />

Miguel (23), Int<strong>er</strong>national Fish<strong>er</strong>ies Management<br />

is more or less satisfied. Some days he has<br />

had to wait for more than an hour but it could<br />

be worse – oth<strong>er</strong> people had to wait more.<br />

He is not ups<strong>et</strong> about Nobina's struggling<br />

and points out that it's too early to judge. It's<br />

really nice that they try to deploy environmentally<br />

friendly buses and it's also a big advantage<br />

for him that they charge the regular<br />

day price for night buses.<br />

Sara (20), Social Anthropology<br />

moved to Tromsø in January so it's hard for<br />

h<strong>er</strong> to compare the two bus companies. But<br />

she's satisfied with the current s<strong>er</strong>vice. She<br />

has had no big problems with being late because<br />

of buses. She feels comfortable in the<br />

new buses and likes the cheap night bus s<strong>er</strong>vice.<br />

It would be nice if the screens would<br />

show the next bus stop – if you're new in<br />

Tromsø, you can miss the right bus stop v<strong>er</strong>y<br />

easily.<br />

Sylwia (29), Peace and Conflict Studies<br />

thinks that busses are quite often too late but<br />

Nobina has just started their business h<strong>er</strong>e<br />

so people have to be a bit patient. She heard<br />

a rumor about extra money for bus driv<strong>er</strong>s if<br />

they are on time. She feels sorry with them<br />

anyhow – it seems like they struggle a lot<br />

with the buses' technique: Doors aren't closing,<br />

card activators aren't working and you<br />

g<strong>et</strong> the impression that som<strong>et</strong>ing's wrong<br />

with the engines. But she really appreciates<br />

that Nobina's buses are bigg<strong>er</strong> and som<strong>et</strong>imes<br />

equipped with a hybrid engine. It's a<br />

pity that Nobina cancelled the last direct<br />

bus to Prestvann<strong>et</strong> in the evening though.<br />

forskningsdokumentene fritt tilgjengelige.<br />

Den frie tilgangen gjør<br />

d<strong>et</strong> også mulig å nyttiggjøre seg<br />

dokumentene <strong>på</strong> en langt m<strong>er</strong> effektiv<br />

måte, og skredd<strong>er</strong>sy nye tjenest<strong>er</strong>,<br />

slik High North Research<br />

Tjenesten har fått navn<strong>et</strong> “High<br />

North Research Documents” og<br />

gir alle fri tilgang til forskningsdokument<strong>er</strong><br />

som har relevans for<br />

nordområdene. I tillegg bygg<strong>er</strong><br />
