Put down your pens, time is up, it’s our Exam special edition of the Reviewsletter. With exams just around the corner we thought we’d point you in the direction of just some of the wealth of resources that the Glyn Library has to support you through this period. That doesn’t just mean revision guides though, we feel it’s just as important to remain stress-free at this time and so you’ll find a mix of relaxing and inspiring resources alongside the study guides. In Non-Fiction you’ll find an introduction to not only our range of revision guides but also some of the general study skills books to ensure you’re prepared for your exams in every way possible. In our Reviews section our Reviewsletter Team tell you about the fiction and films which lift their spirits and make them feel good. In Fiction we take a look at some of the favourite books of our students and staff submitted as part of our World Book Day promotion. In Film we offer you a list of films to inspire you and fill you with the feeling that you can take on the world, or at least your A-Level exams. Graphic Novels offers reviews of some of the latest comic books and manga added to our shelves. Meanwhile the Graphic Novel Club tell us what they think are the best and worst graphic novels and manga of all time. In Journals we take a look at some of the new titles which have recently graced our shelves. Finally, we offer a report on our Game of Prose competition with a chance to read the winning story.
