Library sessions for Semester B
Please let me know as soon as possible if you would like me to do any user education sessions this semester - perhaps your students need a refresher on electronic resources or you may have new students who have never used our library resources.
Exhibition at Cornerhouse
It has recently been discovered that humans are closer to higher primates than was previously thought. This exhibition brings together a group of artists who actively question the authority of the human species over all other animal species.
Four artists present specially commissioned projects developed with animals. Nicolas Primat presents his work involving interactions with tribes of monkeys and bonobo apes, in which he reveals the hidden non-human primate in all of us. Kira O’Reilly, in her special performance for Cornerhouse and installation, Falling Asleep with a Pig, allows a glance at an intimate relationship between her and a female pig known as Deliah. Antony Hall’s interactive work, ENKI experiment 3, explores communication between visitors and a Black Ghost Knife Fish. Ruth Maclennan presents, The Hawk and the Tower, a film that looks at people, the city and the landscape from the perspective of a ‘hawk-camera.’
Also included in the exhibition are Rachel Mayeri’s Primate Cinema, which casts human actors in the role of mating non-human primates and Beatriz da Costa’s PigeonBlog, which investigates the military use of homing pigeons.

Film and Sound Online
Dear Colleagues
I wanted to bring your attention to an excellent electronic resource (provided free as it is JISC funded) that seems to be rather underused.
Film & Sound Online is a JISC-funded set of collections of film, video and sound material. Several hundred hours of high-quality material are available for download, either in full or as segments, and can be used freely in learning, teaching and research.
Please have a look and recommend it to your students, if it would be useful. You will need an Athens account to access it so let me know if you need to set one it.

This database is also available from Library website. Access E journals and Databases and the link is included in the Databases A to Z list.
