WELCOME GUIDE 2015 Getting to know the Library You are going to spend a lot of time in the Library (and even more now that it is open 24 hours a day) so it is really important that you learn how to get the most out of it. You will find the Library webpages and KLE resources invaluable. They have lots of useful information such as which books are located where and the floor plans of the building, so you can get a head start and feel that you know the place when you first walk through the doors. During the first few weeks, there will be lots of staff and student guides on hand to answer any questions, point you in the right direction and explain how things work. To find out more go to www.keele.ac.uk/library. Specialist technology for blind/partially sighted students is available in the AV room in the library. Ask at Reception for access to these specialist resources. The Health Library at the Clinical Education Centre at the Hospital Campus is also open throughout the week at the following times: Monday-Thursday 8.30am-9.45pm Friday 8.30am-7.45pm Saturday-Sunday 10.00am-10.00pm The Health Library is not open on Bank Holidays and has no out-of-hours access During the weekends and after 5.30pm please use the side-entrance opposite the footbridge. You will need to use your Keele card or library membership card to gain access, using the Access Control system to open the door. Please visit the Health Library website for more information www.keele.ac.uk/healthlibrary Things to do when you receive this Guide This section is all about the return of important information so we can prepare for your arrival at Keele. When you have completed these important tasks, you can relax and look forward to starting life as a Keele student. Completing the pre-enrolment process The first thing that all new students need to do is complete the pre-enrolment process. By 16 September at the latest, log onto the University’s eVision system to complete the pre-enrolment process. If you receive this Welcome Guide after this date then please pre-enrol as soon as you can. To complete the pre-enrolment process go to students.keele.ac.uk and log on with your username and password. Click on the ‘The Office’ tab, you’ll find this located at the top right of the screen and then on the top of the next screen that appears, click on the ‘eVision’ tab which will take you to the eVision system. From there all you have to do is follow the on-screen instructions which will guide you through the process. The pre-enrolment process will allow you to: • Provide a photograph of yourself so that we can produce your KeeleCard ready for when you arrive at Keele • Supply us with details of a person who we could get in touch with in case of an emergency • Check and confirm other information we hold about you, which will save you time when you arrive at Keele • Choose any elective or optional modules, if these are required as part of your undergraduate degree course 14
