In 2010 labsome moves into fancy new premises in the completely refurbished Building 9 (pretty much base camp for the new School of Media and Communication). We have a lot of AV resources where you can plug in a laptop and send the image to other screens, and so on. Below you will find a pdf which is the user guide for this room.

The postgraduate students are going to have a workshop and chat amongst themselves about interviewing and research. Those of you who are going to do interviews should join in. No dates yet, but I'll let you know when.

Have made a new page on the site that contains all the supervision documents as individual files and as a complete pack.

This page contains pdf copies of a variety of documents related to labsome supervision. They're here so that supervisors can get copies, students can understand what's involved, and to make it easier for potential supervisors to understand the role.

The latest issue of Text includes the Proceedings of the Art of the Real: National Creative Non-fiction Conference. This means there are a variety of essays there about writing non fiction, relevant to many of you. Perhaps worth a look?
