Library News New Library helpers
This term we welcome James Cope, Oliver Mills, Alfie McCaffery-Simpson and Carl Gardner as Library Monitors. They help our regular Assistants John Skerritt, Nick Allen and Joe Scarborough during our busy lunchtimes. The Library just would not operate efficiently without them.
