You access the site through the Curtin website www.library.curtin.edu.au 3. 3.1 PURHASING BOOKS Booklist Please order your books as soon as possible to ensure that you have them at the commencement of semester. UWA booklists are available on the Coop Bookshop website at www.coop-bookshop.com.au.

All you need to do is go to www.studentconnect.uwa.edu.au and log in. If you are a first year student you may need to activate your Pheme account first, this can be done from the Student Connect webpage. Under ‘Enrolment’ on the left hand side menu, click on ‘Course & unit’. Under the “Units’ link you will find all of your active courses and enrolled units. Next to each enrolled unit is a direct link to its text list on the Co-op Bookshop website. 4 Add the text you wish to purchase to your shopping basket and you can place an online order to be delivered FREE OF CHARGE to your home address – avoiding the in-store queue! Alternatively, print out your requirements and come and see us in store. * If any of your units do NOT have a text list, it may still be forthcoming or no text may be required. Any concerns, check with your department. 3.3 The Bookshop (Curtin) Web www.bookshop.curtin.edu.au This link goes to the Bookshop. Students can also access their book list from the list of units they are enrolled in (under My Studies & Evaluate tab) in OASIS. Phone 9266 3469 Booklists for semester one 2013 will be available via OASIS and the Curtin Bookshop website from Monday 4th February 2013. Students are advised to ensure that they have the current semester unit outline before ordering books. The current unit outline for each unit is accessed from Blackboard. Students can order books online or by phone. Credit card payments are accepted. The bookshop will send books directly to the Albany Centre in the internal mail for a small fee or they can send directly to students (at a higher rate depending on the amount of books ordered). Please take care with your order and keep receipts in case there are any changes to the Essential Text and/or you withdraw early in the semester. Curtin will take returns as long as there is a legitimate reason the student no longer requires the text and that they have the receipt of purchase. An email will be sent to you when your books arrive and they will be held at the front office for collection. If you are expecting a book, you can always ask when you are passing the office if you have not checked your emails that day. 3.4 Second-hand Books The UWA Student Guild has a second-hand bookshop as well as a second hand book exchange service.

Betty will send the book down to you via the Albany Centre, and payment can be made via cheque or money order. Please be aware that the Second-hand Bookshop is only open Mon-Fri 10am – 3pm. There are also some lists of second-hand books for sale on the general notice board in the Albany Centre. 4. 4.1 SAFETY & SECURITY AT THE UWA ALBANY CENTRE Security & Access Security of the Centre is the responsibility of every student and staff member. Please ensure that windows are closed, blinds drawn, lights and air conditioners and heaters are turned off, and 5 doors locked if you are the last one to leave a room. When leaving the building, ensure that external doors close and lock properly behind you. Your student ID card gives you access to the Albany Centre so please keep the card in a secure place at all times. You need your card to activate the middle door to depart the building. Should you lose or misplace your card, please report the loss to the front office immediately so your access can be amended. Once a replacement card has been received (or you find your card), access will be returned. The cost of a replacement card is $15. Your card must NOT be used by anyone else. Please note that any after-hours access is for study purposes only. You are not permitted to sleep in the building. There are security cameras in place and you will be noticed if you do! 4.2 Family and Friends Policy If you bring friends and family/children to the Centre, you must accompany them at all times and their presence must not be disruptive to other students and staff. Visitors are not permitted to use computers or any other equipment. Please arrange to meet your visitors in the front office area or outside the General Access Lab at a pre-arranged time. Please ensure you make these arrangements, as staff cannot come and get you, and visitors are not permitted to wander through the building looking for you. Do not tell your visitors to knock on the external General Access Lab door, as this is disruptive for students and staff. Anyone needing to bring their children to tutorials should check with their tutor first. It is University policy that children must be under the direct supervision of their parent at all times while in the building. 4.3 Health & Safety Smoking: University policy prohibits smoking in its buildings and within 5 metres of doors, windows and air conditioning ducts. Alcohol: Consumption of alcohol is not permitted on campus without permission from the Albany Centre Administration. Parking: There is an Albany Centre student parking area next to the railway line on the lower level. Please use this car park and not the street parking or the foreshore car park as we want to avoid complaints from local businesses and be good neighbours. You will need a parking permit to park in the UWA car park, available from the front office (at no charge). Please note that the UWA staff bays near the middle-level entry door are only available to students after hours. The disabled bay is only to be used by people with disabilities. Pets: Are not permitted in the building. 5. GENERAL INFORMATION 5.1 Contact details It is important that we have your current address and contact phone numbers so that all official correspondence is sent to the correct address and contact can be made by telephone. You must advise both the Albany Centre and Student Administration If you change your address or telephone number. You do this by logging on to Student Connect (UWA) or OASIS (Curtin) to change your address with Student Administration on the main campuses, and by email or in person to the Albany Centre. We cannot change the Student Administration details – you must do this yourself. 5.2 Email You will be issued with an email address at enrolment or orientation. All students must check their email regularly as it is the University’s principal means of contacting students. Curtin 6 students will have both UWA & Curtin emails. You must check emails at least once a week or, ideally, daily. 5.3 Energy Conservation and Recycling Help us to reduce our carbon footprint. Ensure computers are shut down and lights and airconditioning are turned off when you leave a room.

Keys are available from the front office on request. A small $5 deposit is required. If the key is not returned at the end of the semester, or year (if you are studying both semesters), the Centre will retain the deposit, which covers the cost of replacing the key. 5.5 Mail There is a daily courier service between Albany and the Perth campuses. To send something in the bag: clearly mark the person/department on the envelope ensure their Mail Bag Delivery number is on the envelope (UWA) ensure Curtin University is clearing marked (Curtin) place the envelope in the mail bag by 3pm The Mail Bag is located in the front office.

Please check the notice boards whenever you are passing that way. (There are also unofficial notice boards for all non-university related posters and notices located next to and inside the group study room). 5.7 Peace and Quiet to Study The general access lab is meant to be a quiet place to listen to lectures and study. While collaborative learning is a wonderful thing and is to be encouraged, it can also be noisy and disruptive for other students. If you want to work together, please use the Group Study Room or the Student Common Room. The meeting room and tutorial rooms upstairs can also be used from 9-5 if they are available – please ask at the front office to check if you can use one. If working with other students involves using a computer, laptops with a wireless connection are available on loan from the front office and can be used in most rooms in the building. Study takes priority over Student Common Room activities, so if you are asked to turn down music, please do so immediately. 5.8 Printing & Photocopying The Campus Card printer is located in the mid-level corridor. You can release your print jobs for printing to this machine. Prices are: A4 black and white 10c; A3 black and white 20c; A4 colour 20c; A3 colour 40c. 20% discount for duplexing. 5.9 Student Committee The Albany Centre Student Committee provides you with a collective voice and representation, and is your link to Curtin and UWA student guilds.
