UMS Library Trip

(21 April 2010)
Seventeen teslians escorted by our Language Development's lecturer, Miss Lee Sow Ying went to UMS Library for an educational trip. The trip was a really eye-opening experience. UMS Library is huge and there are many resources available for students. We went there for an educational tour cum doing research for our Language Development's coursework. Here are some photos from our trip.

9) At the MegaLab

10) The MegaLab provides high-speed internet for free for five hours.

11) Students at UMS can return books at machine provided unlike the traditional method where we need to go to the librarian to scan the books.

12) Express OPAC is where one can search for the book's call number, so one can find the book they want easier.

13) Representative from UMS teaching us how to use the Epress OPAC

14) UMS Library entrance(Ground Floor)

15) Inside the library. See how far the library stretch and that is still not the end of it.

After the tour, we had the rest of the afternoon walking around the library looking for books and running around to find the photocopy shop which is at a very secluded place.
