And remember, UVic law students, you need not be away from the law library even if you are away from campus during the break. If you find yourself longing for a look at one of our licensed databases, off-campus access is available to you throughout this time, as always. Simply access the libraries’ database list, and enter your Netlink ID and password when prompted to do so.

Enjoy your well-deserved break, and we’ll see you back in 2020.

Well Wishes and Library exam period reminders

The Law Library would like to wish all the students good luck on their exams!

We would also like to remind students of the extended study hours and research help options, as well as the supports offered by Amicus and the relaxation station available during library hours.

Extended Library Hours over Exam Period (Dec 2-18):
Mon-Thurs: 8am-10pm
Fri: 8am-8pm
Sat-Sun: 10am-10pm

Supports, Relaxation Station and the Ultimate Exam Playlist
Remember that Amicus Team support remains available to law students throughout the year and that the law library’s Relaxation Station is available whenever the library is open.

Above the Law published an “Ultimate Law School Finals Playlist” which has songs for any and all of the emotions brought on by exams.

Citation and Research Help:
You may have noticed that the research help desk in the law library is unattended during the December exam period.

Though the desk is quiet, research and citation help will remain available until December 24.

Students, you’re encouraged to email or phone the usual research help contacts. The librarians receive email and phone messages at those contacts and will respond as quickly as possible, Monday through Friday. You may also make an appointment with a librarian for research help via the staff at the library circulation desk.

Our regular Research Help Desk hours will recommence in the new year.
