Worth noting that the card reader thing there is slightly different to other ones round college -it wont just detect your card you have to hold the bar code up to it.

Spent about five minutes waving my card at it like an idiot once before I figured that out

Eh? I just figured you have to hold your card against the keypad rather than that ~.

Guys, I've a question.

So here I am in the 24 Hour Library on a Saturday evening (and it's uncomfortably full), but are there any toilet facilities on campus which are open at this time? Arts Block is closed but I think Hamilton is open 24/7 by card access?

Basically where do people go for a pee during an all-night study session? :P

Toilets in the Berkeley library. They can be accessed via the door at the top of the ramp on the cricket pitch side of the library.
