Announcing the winner of the library ebook reader.

Jaesson Gee is the lucky winner of the “Library Subject Guides” competition. Jaesson is a student at The Bremer and is also undertaking external studies through NSW TAFE. He is thrilled to receive the ebook reader and keen to use it for his studies.

Since the subject guides were launched on 30th January, they have received 6363 hits and over 145 students entered the competition. We are delighted to receive some very positive feedback on our innovative subject guides.


“It's a FANTASTIC tool that allows you to search all the references you need under the subject you are studying instead of trying to think of the name of the book/journal/author/etc.. Not only that, it will lead to other sources you may have not thought of at the time”.

“The new Subject Guides have been done to a top standard which I have found useful”.

“I look forward to exploring them more fully in the coming semester. They look like a great resource”.

“I think it's great and should cut my research time down by heaps”.
