With winter break right around the corner, students are positively buzzing with excitement and anticipation, but even a short time away from school can result in some learning loss. Parents can do many things over the holidays to keep their students engaged and excited about education, so they return to school next year sharp and ready to learn. Here are a few fun activities and science experiments from Capistrano Connections Academy educators to keep kids learning this winter break.
- Drive Home Math and Spelling Skills – With so many of us traveling for the holidays, a car trip is a great time to review math problems and spelling words. Play a game with your student to spell winter-related words. Or challenge your kids to do as many addition, subtraction, or multiplication problems they can solve in the time it takes to drive to the grocery store.
- Read Every Day – U.S. Department of Education research indicates reading to children is "the single most important activity for building the knowledge required for eventual success in reading." With so many great stories to read related to this time of year, why not have your student read you a story every night, or write one? You can help them work through any words they don't know, and if family members are visiting, your student can read to an audience.
- Family Game Night – Games are a great way for children to bond with relatives, so find some time for game night. Chess supports children's analytical and problem-solving skills, and Scrabble helps boost spelling and vocabulary skills. You can play the board game, or even play free online versions, if your tech-savvy students prefer.
- Go to the Park – One of the perks of living in Southern California is the beautiful weather, and your family can take full advantage by taking a field trip to a local park or historic site. In addition to the health benefits of physical activity, many kids love the outdoors and can learn lots about science while strengthening analytic abilities and having fun. Remember to ask park officials if they have any free student guides or activities for your kids. There are also many places that do historic stage re-enactments of living in a previous time—school, home life—that really brings history to life for children.
- Do a Science Experiment – in Your Kitchen! – Connections Academy's Science in the Kitchen club has a lot of great science experiments you can conduct at home with your children. You can make a battery out of a lemon, create homemade play dough circuits, or even use eggs to create your own geodes!
What are you doing over winter break to help your children stay connected to learning?

Enough! wants peace in Sudan but war in Congo
Go figure. Enough! wants Sudan's Omar Hassan al-Bashir behind bars – but wants U.S. support for Uganda's Museveni. The fragile peace that was gained for two years in the region as the LRA (Lord's Resistance Army) and the Ugandan government negotiated peace was destroyed by President Yoweri Museveni's decision to attack.
by Carolyn Edson
Enough! is advocating yet another invasion of the Democratic Republic of Congo by Ugandan forces, supposedly to capture or kill Joseph Kony and his treacherous Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) with additional reinforcement and assistance by the United States.
Enough! demands a U.S.-assisted "Operation Lightning Thunder II." This follows the dismal failure of "Operation Lightning Thunder I," an attack on LRA positions inside the Congo by Ugandan troops assisted by the U.S. in December 2008, the last month of the George W. Bush government.
For 23 years all military operations against this notorious LRA have failed. Failure means that thousands of innocent people have been killed by both sides. Over a million people have been displaced in Uganda into wretched camps from which more people died of preventable diseases than from the conflict itself, literally in the hundreds of thousands.
The fragile peace that was gained for two years in the region as the LRA and the Ugandan government negotiated peace was destroyed by President Yoweri Museveni's decision to attack. The talks were undermined, some say because of Museveni's maneuverings behind the scenes and Kony's refusal to sign the final peace accords.
Against this background of bloodshed and failed military operations Enough! is propagating yet another invasion of DRC by Uganda's army, the Uganda People's Defense Force (UPDF). This time, for it to succeed, the U.S. should take a more active role, Enough! claims.
The whole idea is ridiculous and has only tragic possible outcomes. Enough! would have us believe that this time would be different because civilians would be "protected" and there would be "humanitarian" and "developmental assistance."
This is preposterous rhetoric for American home consumption. The U.S. has had a terrible record of "protecting civilians" in any of its own wars; how will it be able to ensure the protection of civilians in a Ugandan army spearheaded war?
Museveni regarded the administration of President Bush as his friend and ally. The Museveni government has earned notoriety as being one of the world's most corrupt regimes. One would have hoped that the present government of the U.S. would distance itself from such regimes. Apparently President Museveni serves the interests of the U.S..
Now while all these militias, rebel groups and armies have been causing horrific wars at great cost to human lives in central Africa, so-called developed countries have been enjoying a lifestyle that is sustained in large part by the resources that come from Africa. The DRC supplies the world's diamonds, coltan, tantalite, oil and so forth.
DRC diamonds find their way to Western nations through Uganda. Western multinational corporations have no trouble hiring militias or mercenaries who deal with the warlords and militias in order to illegally extract these resources.
The warlords and militias hold the civilian population in what can only be called modern day slavery, human life meaning nothing to those in power or to the corporations. Western governments know this but turn a blind eye. We rarely hear a peep from Enough! which supposedly opposes crimes against humanity and genocide.
In previous wars perpetrated by Uganda in DRC, 7 million people died and the UPDF plundered DRC as documented in numerous United Nations and Human Rights Watch reports. See "Ituri Covered In Blood."
In 2005 also the International Court of Justice ruled against Uganda for the Congo crimes and awarded $10 billion to Congo. Is there a hidden agenda behind Enough's! advocating for another U.S.-backed Uganda invasion of Congo? Whose tail is wagging which dog?
This story, published by Black Star News, is highly recommended by Maurice Carney of Friends of the Congo. Black Star News, whose motto is "Speaking Truth to Empower," invites comments addressed to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Ann Garrison
Excellent piece. I have so had enough of Enough, which has co-opted the name of countless activist organizations, including our own Bayview Hunters Point (BVHP) ENOUGH.
When Chouchou Namegabe Nabintu came to testify before Barbara Boxer's committee within the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, she said that she had talked to "Mr. Prendergrast," of ENOUGH, and I said "Oh yeah, lotta good that's gonna do."
At the turn of last year, Friends of the Congo was asking its members to write to Barack Obama about Congo, and I wrote, but I don't think we mustered even 50 signatures by the time ENOUGH had many thousands. They seem to be almost as influential as the SAVE DARFUR Coalition, which similarly promotes U.S. foreign policy.↓

I'd like to alert you to a new book on Kony and his child soldiers titled, First Kill Your Family: Child Soldiers of Uganda and the Lord's Resistance Army, available at Amazon.↓

A forensics expert and a crime scene expert took the stand Tuesday in the trial of Guy Heinze Jr., a man accused of killing eight people.
Michael Knox, a crime scene analyst who testified in the George Zimmerman trial in Orlando, called this the crime scene of a career and questioned why the FBI and GBI were not called in for their resources. He also said police appeared to have ignored evidence and failed to follow basic crime scene rules.
Knox testified that Glynn County police did not spend as much time collecting evidence outside as they did inside the mobile home, and some evidence may have been ignored.
"There are tire impressions which do not belong to the mercury cougar," said Knox. "And you will see police standing in the dirt in the back, as well as footprints not entered into evidence."
The witnesses pointed out what they call major flaws in the Glynn County police investigation, including putting bloody evidence in plastic bags and putting evidence in the same package, which can contaminate it.
They also said clothes, including a polo shirt and pair of shorts, did not have enough blood on them to be worn by the attacker because of the amount of blood and splatters involved in the grisly attacks.
The defense witnesses testified that four of the eight murder victims fought for their lives, and with the amount of blood inside the trailer, whoever killed them would have had blood all over their clothes.
Knox said photos of Heinze Jr. following his arrest showed little blood or evidence he was involved in a struggle. Knox also said police failed to process the bodies of the victims for any of their attackers' DNA, skin or fingerprints.
Experts also believe two weapons were used in the attacks, calling into question how many people may have committed the murders.
They said the evidence points to more than one attacker and said Heinze Jr. could not have committed this crime alone.
"For this attack alone, there could be a single perpetrator, but for the all of this taken into conjunction this could not be done by one person," said Knox. "You will start waking people up. This is not something one person could carry out on their own."
He also testified a back window was wide open and could have been exit or entry point, but it was not fingerprinted or looked at, along with other possible weapons, tire tracks or footprints.
Closing arguments will begin Wednesday at 9 a.m. and then the jury will deliberate.

Was Marilyn's knee replaced recently?
No it is the left knee, scope. Numerous years of pitching ,playing Basket ball up till last season,took its toll. The final hit was an outing at Mudhens stadium in Toledo, My brother talked me into , hitting Batting practice Fielding , mainly for bragging rights , well I turned really hard on a couple, Hit it 365 over left center field wall twice. Wooden bats to boot.
the next day it swelled up and could hardly walk. Went in and the Doc just shook his head. I guess time to quit.
There is a worn spot on the femur, Chip , he is looking at Scar tissue etc,
Incidently .I did get my HR ball.

Investment Scam
Dennis Sindry was one of many victims of an elaborate investment scheme. The conman was previously an attorney in Houston and owes over 30 million in back taxes. He claimed he had ownership interest in oil and gas wells in Texas and promised a return of 16 percent on investors' your money.
The salesman was an out of work broker at the time, affable, genuinely friendly. The first 10 months, Dennis started receiving the checks, then intermittent, then not at all. And that's when he realized it was a ponzi scheme.
In all 40 victims lost over 6-million dollars.
Keep in mind that in schemes like this-it's buyer beware. It's up to you to check out the people you invest with. Recouping your losses can be difficult if not impossible

Hospice workers are giving a 2-year-old boy and his mother their Christmas wish – a flight home to visit family in Cleveland, Ohio in time for the holidays.Dieeja Collier, 19, moved to Atlanta to go to college. Her 2-year-old son Ethan has been in hospice his entire young life. He suffers from hydranencephaly, a condition in which the brain stops growing and fills with fluid. "I always try and see the positive side of things. From outside looking in, it seems negative and it seems like it's hard. And it really is hard but I'm just grateful to have this time with him and I'm grateful God allowed me to be a mom," said Collier. That remarkable attitude impressed Harbor Grace volunteer Adam Fellabaum and spurred him to find a way to get the two home. He arranged for a free flight, and he and nurse Ginni Jackson will accompany them. "It's what every family should be able to get. That what holidays are about," said Fellabaum. "It's been the best Christmas gift of all for me.""When you find out there's somebody who needs something and you can do something for them that they can't do for themselves – that's when life feels full," said Jackson.Dieeja is scheduled to fly out on Friday morning. "It's just going to be great- that's all I can say. I'm just really excited to see my sisters and see my family," said Collier.

--Description: 20th C, Masefield J., Nature, Life--
A wind's in the heart of me, a fire's in my heels,
I am tired of brick and stone and rumbling wagon-wheels;
I hunger for the sea's edge, the limit of the land,
Where the wild old Atlantic is shouting on the sand.
Oh I'll be going, leaving the noises of the street,
To where a lifting foresail-foot is yanking at the sheet;
To a windy, tossing anchorage where yawls and ketches ride,
Oh I'll be going, going, until I meet the tide.
And first I'll hear the sea-wind, the mewing of the gulls,
The clucking, sucking of the sea about the rusty hulls,
The songs at the capstan at the hooker warping out,
And then the heart of me'll know I'm there or thereabout.
Oh I am sick of brick and stone, the heart of me is sick,
For windy green, unquiet sea, the realm of Moby Dick;
And I'll be going, going, from the roaring of the wheels,
For a wind's in the heart of me, a fire's in my heels.
John Masefield
--Did You Know: (1 June 1878 – 12 May 1967) John Masefield was an English poet and writer, and Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom from 1930 until his death in 1967. He is remembered as the author of the classic children's novels The Midnight Folk and The Box of Delights, and many memorable poems, including "The Everlasting Mercy" and "Sea-Fever". Masefield was born in Ledbury in Herefordshire, to Caroline and George Masefield, a solicitor. His mother died giving birth to his sister when Masefield was only six, and he went to live with his aunt. His father died soon after following a mental breakdown. After an unhappy education at the King's School in Warwick (now known as Warwick School), where he was a boarder between 1888 and 1891, he left to board the HMS Conway, both to train for a life at sea, and to break his addiction to reading, of which his aunt thought little. He spent several years aboard this ship and found that he could spend much of his time reading and writing. It was aboard the Conway that Masefield's love for story-telling grew. While on the ship, he listened to the stories told about sea lore. He continued to read, and felt that he was to become a writer and story teller himself. Read more at: John Masefield

Hosterman hawk permit denied by Planning Commission
Original post made on Dec 13, 2007
Read the full story here Web Link posted Thursday, December 13, 2007, 1:33 PM
on Dec 13, 2007 at 8:22 pm
This is a bum rap. Moreover, it is pure politics in my opinion - it appears to me that the applicant's opponents who sit on the Planning Commission have said let's punish this woman because "she's our political enemy".
I live a few hundred feet from the property in question and have absolutely no issue with this hawk. After all, they are pervasive in the valley and I watch them all of the time circling above, looking for prey.
I'm unsure where the description "exotic" bird originates in these considerations and who promotes this description.
The definition I found for "exotic" is:
1. From another part of the world
2. Intriguingly unusual or different; excitingly strange
Well, these hawks are all over the valley, so how are they exotic?
I suggest that the mayor appeal to the council since they appear to me as a group to be less biased and more prone to vote the right thing.
on Dec 13, 2007 at 8:35 pm
What kind of person would want to keep a wild bird captive? Does the bird have any say in this matter? A jailbird is one thing but a wild bird held captive? NOT!
If a wild animal is injured, then providing the necessary medical care makes sense. Once healed, let it fly off and enjoy the company of other birds and tasty treats!
on Dec 13, 2007 at 9:28 pm
Well I agree that a wild hawk can't really be classified as a "fowl", but was "exotic bird" the actual term used by the Planning Commission? If so, then apparently none of the commissioners know what the term "exotic bird" is generally reserved for. I keep domesticated exotic birds in my house and sure don't need no permit for them.

CNN's Fareed Zakaria: Obama 'Failing' as Leader of Free World
The unnamed correspondent who interviewed Zakaria began by asking what the anchor/author thought about the president's trip. After dropping the "failing" word, he cited a recent column by British columnist Jonathan Freedland in The Guardian, that "President Obama looks neither like JFK nor FDR but rather JEC -- that's James Earl Carter -- better known here as Jimmy Carter." The interviewer countered, "But it appears everyone is fawning over him." Zakaria answered, "President Obama has encountered a Europe that is more resistant to his policy proposals. The French and Germans have their own proposals. The Chinese and Russians have come with their own demands. And everyone expects him to apologize for having caused this mess in the first place."
The CNN anchor turned to his thesis when the interviewer asked if Obama could be blamed for the "mess" in the global economy: "Of course not. He didn't cause this mess, and no one really blames him personally. The problems President Obama is facing on the world stage have nothing to do with him. They are really a sign that personality cannot trump power in the world of realpolitik. The real story here is that power is shifting away from American dominance to a post-American world." Zakaria defended himself after being skeptically asked if he was "just plugging [his] book," that "what I had outlined [in the book] is coming true. The evidence for this just keeps piling up."
After explaining his thesis more and outlining his "evidence," the anonymous correspondent asked Zakaria, "What should the U.S. do?" He replied, "The United States needs to make its own commitment to the system clear. For America to continue to lead the world, we will have to first join it." Despite using a form of the word "fails" to describe the president's record, something which got Rush Limbaugh in trouble, the anchor also complimented Mr. Obama: "President Obama seems to understand this and is doing his best at meetings like the G-20 and the NATO summit."
Zakaria concluded by using a standard left-wing criticism of the American people: "It is also imperative that more Americans become aware of what is going on in other places -- the other 90 percent of the world." That parting thought could help inoculate Zakaria from any criticism of this assessment, if anyone in the media makes a big deal out of it at all.

PUSD School Board President-"Sorry Students - I Don't Believe You"
Original post made by Unbelievable on Mar 14, 2012
In reference to opinions solicited on how much time children spent on surfing the internet vs doing the homework, many students indicated they don't text or surf the net or engage in on-line social networking during the process of doing homework.
Ms. Laursen's closing summary response to the issues raised? "Sorry Students-I Don't Believe You."
In Pleasanton, I'm used to public officials listening to the community, not discounting their input with "I Don't Believe You." How are students supposed to ever come forward when they aren't believed? Plus, I've never seen so much time wasted on any city or school meeting with long drawn out lectures on parliamentary procedures and Robert's Rules of Order.
How can students expect to have any trust in public officials when the public officials don't trust them?
on Mar 15, 2012 at 1:24 am
"In Pleasanton, I'm used to public officials listening to the community"
on Mar 15, 2012 at 8:12 am
"hmmmm:" Just because someone makes a lot of noise, doesn't mean they are representative of "the community."

Compostable carrier bags handed out to supermarket customers as part of trial
4:00pm Wednesday 15th January 2014 in News
Dorset shoppers will be among the first to trial lightweight compostable carrier bags.
From today customers at Co-operative food stores in Highcliffe, Corfe Mullen, Colehill, Wareham, Sandford and Wimborne will be handed the bags, which can be used to carry shopping home and then re-used as food waste caddy liners.
It is the first time a large-scale food retailer has given shoppers the option of alternative carrier bags with a specific second use.
The stores have been selected as the local authority has a food recycling scheme which requires householders to use compostable bags for food waste.
The new bags, together with their food waste contents, can be turned into compost.
Julian Rickman, the chain's regional operations manager in East Dorset, said: "Every compostable carrier bag used is one less conventional plastic shopping bag in circulation. We believe they will have a significant impact on the number of plastic bags which end up in landfill sites every year."

What is wrong with a choice of paper bags which have been widely used in the US for decades? Perfectly acceptable for the many that drive to the supermarket.

While outwardly appealing to Green consciences ( and how many of us have REALLY got one of those? ) they are in effect saying
"Shop with us , get our bags for free and you won't have to spend money those other approved compostible bags"
It is of course a win win as it will decrease the use of those hideous plastic bags

Phixer wrote:Biodegradable and compostable are two different things. Biodegradable means it will break down quicker in a landfill than normal plastic bags which could still be 60 or 70 years. The compostable ones break down in the composting process (at home or in a food waste system) which means they take like weeks to break down.
Sainsburys was using bio-degrable plastic carrier bags in Sussex during the late 1970's - hardly a 'new' idea.

Why destroy loads of trees to make paper bags? It's just swapping one environmentally damaging type of bag for another.

Chris the plumber says...
and to say the existing carrier bags don't degrade is rubbish I hung a Tesco carrier bag full washed used glass jars in my garden shed 12 months ago..
all the jars are on the floor and the bag now goes to dust if touched

I was looking forward to trying this Widmer offering,a little off the cuff for them I think.Poured into a tulip glass a deep mahogany with amber tinge a 1/2 finger quick to fade off white head atop.Chocolate and raisin aromas with those toasted pecans underneath,the subtle spice that the label promotes is there and compliments everything well.Chocolate flavors at the onset but not very sweet,just enough sweetness,a little roast, earth,black licorice,and cinnamon melds into a great chili finish that lingers in the throat.I love complex and "different" beers like this,there are layers of flavor here that come at each sip.Great job here Widmer,this is probably one of their better beers in their profile,great to savor a Detroit Tiger victory with this one.

Aroma is cocoa with hints of spices and pepper. Malt is clearly dark chocolate with hints of roastiness.
Appearance is Jet Black black, black, black, black, cloudy, frothy, Its got a stout appearance but taste of a dark ale.
Taste is unique: Strong pepper brought on by the chilis coupled with chocolate. Can not taste the pecans but there is limited hoppiness its mostly a malty ale so really limited to no bitterness.
Palate: This is a full bodied beer with some alcohol undertones and a long chocolate finish.
I really have enjoyed this beer and this was the first time I have tried it on tap. Normally able to find it in 22% Bottle (Nicely boxed).

On tap at Whole Foods, Santa Rosa taproom. I am a chile fan so I enjoyed this.chocolate nibs, cinnamon, toasted pecans, and green chilies, chocolate malts. Lots of heat in the finish. Creamy. Roasty aroma. I will try this again in the bottle to try the complexity later but the balance featured on tap was nice.

On tap at Wine 101 in Wake Forest.
A - black with a soft, brownish head that has good retention
S - sweet, nutty, caramel
T - cinnamon, nutty, caramel, chocolate, very faint cayenne heat in the finish
M - medium bodied, smooth, well carbonated
This was an intriguing beer. It tasted like mole, and drank like a unique big bodied, full flavored brown ale. The spices were inviting and warming. This beer has notes of stout, brown ale, strong ale, winter warmer, etc. This beer refuses to be pigeon-holed. If I can find it, I will definitely have it again.

Brewed with chilies, cocoa nibs, cinnamon and toasted pecans. Pours pitch brown (like a deep black/brown) with a rich brown head that dissipates to about 1 cm. Nose is cinnamon, a hint of chilies, those toasted pecans definitely come through and a bit of dark chocolate. There are also some notes of coffee, rich caramel and just a bit of dark fruit like plums. The
taste is heavier on the coffee than the smell. Coffee, caramel, dark malts with only hints of chilies, cinnamon and some sweet, nutty flavors. The aftertaste reflects the spice notes from the chilies and cinnamon and some of the dark chocolate. This is definitely one of the best Widmer Brother's Reserve brews I have had. I have generally been disappointed but they always sound so good that I can't resist. Love it, but it could be more flavorful up front. All the spice notes come in well after on the back end.

On-tap from awhile ago at the Axe. Taken from notes. Served in a pint glass.
Appearance: Dark cola like color. Not quite black. Produces a thicker off white head than I got out of a bottle. Almost no retention and no lacing to speak of though. Bummer.
Aroma: Big on the cinnamon and spice. Chocolate is also a big player. A touch of smoke and toasted pecans.
Taste: The big flavor is the cinnamon spice with several pleasant nuances adding a little complexity. The cocoa nibs add a nice dry powdered chocolate flavor. Toasted pecans show up more in the finish. The chilies, however aren't so much detectable in the taste but add a welcome heat on the back end and mouthfeel.
Mouthfeel: Rich medium full body, but almost no carbonation. The heat the chili adds is nice but not enough to make up for the other short comings on the mouthfeel.
Overall, Widmer has a winner here, wish they could fix the carbonation though. Bottle was the same with the carb. Wish the other flavors would stand up against the cinnamon too. It just takes up too much of the flavor of what could be an excellent beer.

2.99/5 rDev -22.7%
A: 1-finger, white frothy head after pour; settled to nothing after a minute or so. Maroon color; about 80% opaque.
S: Faint; chocolate, molasses, licorice. Something tickles the nose, but I can't put a finger on what it might be; bourbon and spices?
T: A bit weird and not to my liking; bitter and musty. Qualities of the aroma became less noticeable, and I'm left with an interesting oaky/earthy aftertaste.
M: Creamy and bitter. Quite carbonated.
O: I tried to appreciate this, but couldn't. Strikes me as such an average beer with no outstanding qualities. Lacks depth in flavor and smell and perhaps what really threw me off was the awkward imbalance of oak/earthy flavor and the rest, which was faint.

22 ounce bottle, bottled on 8/8/2012. Served in a nonic pint glass, the beer pours very dark brown with about a half inch off-white head that fizzled away quickly. Not much lacing. Aroma is nice, it smells like chocolate, sweet spices, nuts, and some chilies. The brew tastes like nuts, chocolate, dark fruit, sweet spices, chilies, and some dark bread. The chili spice does linger and get stronger as the beer warms up. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it's a bit slick, but also thin as well. Wish it was thicker. Overall, I liked this brew. There was more heat in it than I expected, it's a nice, flavorful beer. $11.49 a bottle.

Widmer's SXNW, ale brewed with pecans, spices, cocoa nibs, and green chilies. 9.3% ABV
A: Very, very dark red, almost black. Honeyed brown in the dimple. Almost no head.
S: Raw cocoa, pecans, and sweetness from the chilies swirl together nicely, neither seeming to overbalance the others.
T/MF: Lot of sweet, dark cocoa flavor. Pecans highly present, but secondary. Just a hint of spice from the chilies. Well balanced. Quite smooth, texturally.
This would make a very nice barrel-aged beer. Rum, perhaps?
Poured from a 22 oz. bottle, into a Belgian tulip glass.

Please note that it is only possible to register for or renew UCL Library Services membership between 09:30-17:00 Monday to Thursday and 10:00-17:00 Friday.
Please consult the separate Membership web pages to find out whether or not you are entitled to use the Library.
All non-UCL users (including UCL Alumni) applying for access to UCL Library Services must produce:
Acceptable proof of identity is:
Acceptable proof of institutional address is:
Acceptable proof of home address is:
Applications will not be accepted without sufficient proof of identity and address. One form of ID can fill more than one role (eg. a photocard driving licence is acceptable both as proof of identity and address). Documents present must be the originals (photocopies are not acceptable). Please note that if your status and eligibility is not clear from the presented documentation, you will be asked to produce additional credentials to confirm (eg. official enrolment certificate from one's home institution). This includes students from other Universities where the department and/or degree studied are not indicated on the Student ID card.
Users applying for borrowing access must also provide a passport sized photograph. This is used to make up your Library card.
Please check the Library's online catalogue Explore before travelling to ensure that we have the material you require, whether it has to be ordered in advance and that you know which Library site to visit.
When you search for a book on Explore, the results displayed will tell you at which site the item is held and whether or not it is currently out on loan.
So, for example, "Main (1/0)" means that the book is held in the Main Library and that we have one copy, but none are out on loan i.e. it should be available. "Science (2/1)" would mean that two copies are held in the Science Library and that someone has borrowed one, and so on.
Any book or journal with the shelfmark Store must be ordered 1-2 working days in advance. This can be done online using the store request form. You do not have to have already joined to make a request.
UCL Library Services consists of a number of different sites. Most, but not all, are within walking distance of the main UCL campus. Maps and local opening hours are available.
When you arrive at the Library, you must first register and obtain a Library pass. This can be done at whichever Library site you intend to visit (see above). It is not necessary to arrange your visit in advance or to let us know that you are planning to visit unless you are intending to join on a paying basis for more than a month, in which case you must contact the Head of Membership first.
Your first visit must be made during Issue Desk opening hours or Main Library Information Point opening hours. However, please note that registration is not possible at the Science Library at weekends or after 1700 during the week, even though the issue desks are open. At other sites, Membership Services will be provided where possible after 1700 and at weekends but should be considered "at" risk. It is strongly recommended that users visit between 0930 and 1700 Monday to Thursday or between 1000-1700 on Friday when attempting to register.
Please make sure that you have all relevant documentation with you, confirming your identity, address and eligibility / status – please see What do I need to bring with me section above for details. If you are joining on the basis that you are from another university, or you are a member of an organisation which has an arrangement with UCL, the onus is on you to bring clear proof of this. You may be refused access if your status and eligibility is not clear from the presented credentials.
In particular, if you are a research postgraduate please make sure that the ID you bring clearly indicates your research status, as PhD and MPhil students are entitled to different library privileges from taught-course students. If this is not clear from your student ID card, you are advised to bring a SCONUL Access Band A card from your home institution.
Your UCL Library card is important - please take care of it. You will not be admitted without it and you will be charged for its replacement.
From 24th September 2007, UCL Library Services will charge a fee of £7.00 for the replacement of all Library only ID cards, reference or borrowing, that have been lost, forgotten or otherwise misplaced.
Note - Unless you belong to a category of user that must pay for access, no charge is made for the initial registration, only for the replacement of lost / forgotten ID cards. Replacement charges are not levied for the replacement of cards that have expired or are within one calendar month of expiry. Also, if a card has become damaged but can be returned to the Library, it will be replaced without charge.
For licensing reasons, non-UCL members cannot consult UCL Library Services' electronic resources offsite, but we do have a number of Explore Access Points in UCL Libraries, through which visitors can view many resources. Explore is a one-stop service solution for the discovery and delivery of printed and electronic resources. You can search for material within a single resource or across a range of resources simultaneously. Your choice of resources includes:
Most resources are available to members of the Library who are not otherwise UCL students or staff. Restricted resources will present a UCL login box.
We advise visitors to bring an unencrypted USB storage device with them if they plan to use eresources. Devices containing encrypted software cannot be used on the Explore Access Points. Subject to copyright restrictions (see Terms of access), users may save copies of documents, but there are no visitor printing facilities.
If, before your visit, you want to see which electronic journals are accessible to non-UCL users, check the listings of journals available to visitors on Explore
Most individual bibliographic databases and other resources may be accessed using the Find Databases option in Explore. The following are not available to non-members of UCL:
There are no PCs available for general use or internet access.
It is possible to bring a laptop into the Library with you.

privacy rights
Notification of rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their educational records. The rights are listed below.
The rights are as follows:
- The right to inspect and review the student's education records within forty-five days of the day SFAI receives a request for access. Students should submit written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect to the Registration and Records Office or to the Dean of Academic Affairs. The Director of Registration and Records will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the SFAI administrator to whom the request was submitted, that administrator shall advise the student of the correct administrator to whom the request should be addressed.
- The right to request the amendment of those student education records which the student believes to be inaccurate or misleading. The student should write the SFAI official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record he or she wants changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading.
- If SFAI decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, SFAI will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.
- The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.*
- The right to file a complaint with the US Department of Education concerning alleged failures by SFAI to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is:
Family Policy Compliance Office
US Department of Education
600 Independence Avenue, SW
Washington, DC 20202-4605
*An example of an exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by SFAI in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research or support staff position; a person or company with whom SFAI has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, SFAI can also disclose education records without consent to officials of another school in which a student seeks or intends to enroll.
