The Library Self-Checkout app Meescan is now available at the Teaching Preparation Centre (TPC) in the Education Building. Users there will be able to use the app to check out items themselves in the TPC Library, just as they can at Archer. The app will automatically switch to the TPC location when a user is in that library.

Pick up a free bookmark and/or a Victorian-style thaumatrope with an Archer Library mood pencil, while supplies last!
