They will probably have been told to to be energy efficient and to save money.

It was necessary.
Unless I have any re-submissions to do, I should hopefully only have to visit that library one more time in my life. Which would be next Wednesday morning to print off the completed Final Essay Of Doom. Paranoia precludes me from printing it now in case I lose it. I prefer to print off and run directly up to the appropriate office to get rid of it.

R: Visit before Wednesday just in case their printers don't work on the day.

That's the way your library seems to work for you, after all... [Edit: Great minds think alike, Phil. Heed the words of wisdom!] Martin |

R: Visit before Wednesday just in case their printers don't work on the day. Damn you, Sir. You gave me The Fear and so I trekked in this evening for an unplanned brief visit to print off the Essay Of Doom. I am glad I did, for the computer system that handles the print jobs appears to be on its last legs and kept freezing up. There were many choice words coming from my lips. FUCKING LIBRARY! -Ralph |

I could use one.
I had to go into the library this morning to print off a job app. Bit lurgied up so did not make it in until 30 mins before closing time (it closes at noon on a Saturday, very helpful), but this would have been fine as I needed access to a computer for less than 5 mins.
Alas, the staff had indulged in their favourite hobby of turning all the computers off even though a fair few folk were in the place. My heart sank. The computer took 20 mins to boot up and another 5 minutes to get internet explorer working. The staff started pressing buzzers and turning the lights on and off to get me out. I came close to a full Falling Down moment, I can tell you.

I'd be tempted to write a letter to the head of the university library services complaining about all the troubles you've had this year in there and how it's adversely affected your studies.

It's not worth the bother. The campus (and library within) I used is in the last few years of life. In 2011 it gets shut down and departments move to new premises in the city centre. The land has already been sold. Indeed, some buildings have already gone and nice shiny houses lie there.

Yer, but the new one might be jst as bad as the old one and if you don't put in a complaint now then the people who made the old one hell are likely to make the new one hell as well.

To be honest, I'm past caring. I'm only popping in until my printer credit runs out, after which I don't want anything to do with the place.
