I suggest you readdress the target of your concerns appropriately. You sound like you're on a bit of a wind up to be honest, I mean how much concern can a person who engages in this behaviour -> http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=74696799&postcount=1469 have?
I know three friends who had phones stolen from the college last week, two in library one in main building.
There is obviously some serial thieves in operation
anyone with half a brain who lives in the region could think to themselves (ah sure i'll head down to ul and scope myself out some new techy gizmos)
In my old college trinity

Cavaet Emptor, Buyer Beware; shiny new toy that you like, others with less morals will also like and take if you leave alone. People rob churches; don't be surprised they rob college libraries too.... or some serial naivety.... Anyone with half a brain would take a basically fundamental precaution, such as taking your MOBILE phone with you when you become MOBILE! Nice subtle mention of TCD....:p

Please take greater care of your personal belongings. ULSU working for you.' or words to that effect.
OhMSGlive wrote: » I can see Paddy doing that somehow. Seriously, there's two sides to the coin here. On one hand, if people are stupid enough to leave things unattended in any public place, never mind the library, then they should expect it to be stolen. I know, human error and all that, but it just takes a small bit of common sense. On the other hand, the security leaves a lot to be desired in the Library. It's supposed to be a place for the students to study, not a place for the leaving certers to come in and chat about their nights out. The sooner this swipe-card system comes in, the better. Speaking on a general campus level, I'm with Sid's suggestion.

Sid_Justice wrote: » Who ever says this isn't a SU relevant cause is deluded. Do the su officers not sit on the same councils as people that make these decisions. If it's the will of the students, the SU officers should be lobbying on their behalf to the respective bodies. Tighter security on campus and in the libraries is needed, it's frankly not acceptable the amount of little neverdowells coming in stealing bikes and stuff from libraries. Does anyone have any facts and figures on the number of assaults on campus?
