Learning Zone is generally a great resource. Suggestion: put on the central TV screens the pods which are free and booked at certain times so people can decide where to work/expect people to ask them to get out. Also, could the noise on the doors when they break be less loud / only go off for 5 minutes. Thank you.
Thank you for your comments regarding the Learning Zone pods. We are aware that the present booking system is not ideal as it is not easy to see when the pods are free and although displaying the availability of the pods on the Plasma screen is a good idea I am not sure that this would be possible.
I have great pleasure in informing you however that we have recently purchased a new booking system which is a lot more user friendly. It will be much simpler to book pods through this system and you should be able to tell at a glance which rooms are free. We hope to have this up and running in the very near future.
