(Dec 10/09) Why is it that you have to be a Health Sci student to book a room in advance at the Health Science Library? You dont have to be in a specific faculty to book a room in Innis, Thode or Mills. To be fair, students from any faculty should be allowed to book a room in advance at Health Science Library.

I think this association needs to be removed or else the library should be closed to non-FHS population. It is a pain in the ass to have so many FHS focused resources just because of funding inequalities! REPLY: I find it hard to take this suggestion seriously! The Health Sciences Library is a wonderful facility, with over 50% of its users being non-FHS students. They can use the collection, the computers, the laptops, the study carrels, the Reading Pavilion, the History of Health and Medicine Room and yes, even the group study rooms! The only thing they cant do is book a study room in advance. You really think the library should be closed to non-FHS students for this reason? -- Liz Bayley, Director, Health Sciences Library (2010-03-24)
