Information for 6th Form
 
The LRC aims to support the subject needs and personal research of Sixth Form students in a variety of ways. During your studies, you will need to gather information from a much broader range of sources, with the LRC acting as an “information gateway” to further information and research avenues, outside the LRC and Hanson School.

It can do this by:

Providing a qualified and experienced LRC Manager and LRC Assistants who are available throughout the day to discuss information needs and to guide users
Encouraging independent learning, and guiding users to a wider world of information.
Providing a Sixth Form collection of resources, as well as access to main LRC collection
Offering a wide selection of current-awareness resources in national and local newspapers, general and subject-specific journals.
Providing guided access to the Internet and a range of CD-ROMs and on-line resources .
Sixth Form students have access to the LRC throughout the school day, as well as before and after school.

Students may borrow up to 6 items, and make full use of the reservation system for popular items already out on loan.

Don’t forget LRC staff are available throughout the day if you need help finding information or structuring your research. We can also help you to find information from other sources outside the school to widen your search and improve your research results.
