If you were a student at the College last year, you may be wondering where the Library’s toilets have gone?  They were removed during the summer vacation, and have been replaced by a storeroom.  Your nearest toilets are now located on the 1st floor - take the corridor on your left at the top of the stairs.

The Library will be running a series of legal research workshops in early September.  The workshops are designed to support LPC students with their Practical Legal Research, but they are open to all students who wish to attend. 

The first workshop is an introduction to printed legal research using Halsbury’s Laws, Halsbury’s Statutes, Current Law and the Digest.  The second workshop is an introduction to electronic legal research using LexisNexis Butterworths and Westlaw databases.
