Stocktake & semester break opening times

From Monday 3rd December 2013 the campus libraries and learning centres will be reducing their opening hours until the commencement of Semester 1, 2013. Also during the first week of December there will be a stocktake of the library collection. There will be a reduction of some services, but no interruption to computer access, printing, borrowing and especially returns.

Ensure all your items are returned before you go on holidays as fines accrue till the beginning of Semester 1 2013, and results will be withheld if there's outstanding fines.

The libraries will be closed for the 2 week Christmas/New Year period, from FRIDAY 21 December, opening on MONDAY 7 January 2013.

The campus opening hours are listed in LibGuides under the About tab. Service as usual during those hours. Wishing you excellent results and a restful and enjoyable break from your studies during the festive season.

New Australian Indigenous Medicine Subject Guide

Resources related to natural medicine used by Australian Aborigines have been collated on LibGuides under the Subject Guides list. It was created by Stephen Barnett and a UniSA Library Studies student Jana Herber during a placement at the Adelaide Campus Library.

Having these resources grouped in one place is a great bonus as they are sometimes difficult to locate. Check it out! It may be relevant to your History of Healing or Herbal Medicine subjects.
