Farewell to our Director - Dr Nick Smith

On the 26th of June, Director of LIS, Dr Nick Smith retired from the University.  He has worked through enormous changes at the University and the Library, not least the complete refurbishment of the Library Building that was completed in October 2013. 

The University and Library staff both held celebratory parties to wish him well on his retirement after 26 years at the University. For those of you that don't know, one of Nick’s talents was as a poet.  He regaled every member of staff that left their position within the Library with a poem (copyright protected of course) and it was always the highlight of the party.  It was only right that we should treat Nick to a poem written in his honour - scripted and performed by Lydia Matheson (Customer Service Co-ordinator)

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Nick for all his support over the years from staff old and new.  Nick - we have promised we will never mention the year "1995".
  
We hope you will join us in wishing Nick a very happy retirement, successful golf tournaments and much relaxation.
