What is a resource?<\/strong> It’s more than you may initially think, and there are many different resources available to you here at Edge Hill University.\u00a0It is something that can help aid you in doing a specific job, writing an assignment or your dissertation.<\/p>\n

The resources available to you throughout Catalyst are more than you may initially think. So, let\u2019s take a look\u2026<\/p>\n

The Printing Hub<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The printing hub is the place for all of your printing needs. The printing hubs are located within the \u201clandmarks\u201d which are the black circular structures on each floor of the Catalyst building. Every student at the start of each academic year is issued with printing credit<\/a>. Black and White printing is 2p\/sheet and colour is 5p\/sheet. Once your printing credit has ran out you may top it up via cash or card at the Catalyst help desk located which is located on the ground floor.<\/p>\n

Stationary and Binders<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Also, you may not know but located within each Printing Hub are stationary tools such as; a hole puncher, staplers, cello tape and paper binders. These are all completely free to use, all we ask is that once you have finished that you please return them to the Printing Hub for the use of other students.<\/p>\n

Newspapers <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Newspapers are a great resource especially when writing assignments. There are range of newspapers covering a variety of topics and stories. These are free to use, read and reference however we do ask that you do not remove these from Catalyst as they are on a \u201cNo-Loan\u201d policy as they are fragile and irreplaceable. These are located on the 2nd<\/sup> floor of Catalyst by the spiral staircase.<\/p>\n

Magazines <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Magazines are the perfect resource when writing assignments and dissertations. They also cover a range of topics and academic areas. Again, they are completely free to use, however the University pay a lot of money for these publications and they are on a \u201cNo-Loan\u201d policy. These can be found on the 2nd<\/sup> floor of Catalyst by the spiral staircase.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Journals <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Journals are a fabulous resource when writing assignments and dissertations. They are reliable academic resources, and really help boost your assignment grades with accurate academic resources. These can be located on the 2nd<\/sup> floor of the Catalyst by the spiral staircase, opposite the Magazine and Newspaper section.<\/p>\n

Teaching Resources and Books<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>These are the perfect resources for students who are studying education related degrees. These resources are perfect for when students go out on placement and have to take classes and teach. There are boxes of classroom activities and fictional books such as Harry Potter. So, whether you are teaching or want to read one of the many fictional books, they are available to loan. They can be found on the 1st<\/sup> floor by the bottom of the spiral staircase.<\/p>\n

DVDs and CDs<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Finally, there are hundreds of DVD\u2019s and CD\u2019s available to students and staff too. They are also available for loan! They are the perfect resource for media or film students however if you fancy a movie night or want to be \u201cold school\u201d and listen to a CD because you\u2019ve ran out of your free month from Netflix and Spotify then these are amazing. They are free to take out and are located on the 2nd<\/sup> floor of Catalyst by the toilets. From Disney classics to Horror there is something for everybody.<\/p>\n

So, next time you are struggling to form an assignment or perhaps are having trouble finding reliable academic resources visit the Catalyst building and check out one of our many books or view one of the available journal or newspaper articles. Or why not borrow one of the many CDs or DVDs, whether it\u2019s for academic use or personal use and you just fancy a movie night with your flat mates, feel free to check them out. There are also many other hidden resources within Catalyst like the Archive Room on the ground floor and you can borrow webcams for video interviews etc. These can be borrowed from Catalyst help desk.<\/p>\n

So if there is something you might need then pop down to Catalyst, because you never know we might just have it.<\/p>\n
