A fourth-year student of the Degree in Electronic and Automatic Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT) launched this morning the book loan service that the Resource Center for Learning and Research (CRAI) restarted today after the closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic.The student has borrowed three copies of manuals with problems for Power Electronics and Applied Thermodynamics subjects.

"They are the recommended bibliography and I always like to have on hand books with exercises like those that will come out on the exam," he commented when leaving the library.

Her exams are next week and, although she has been convinced to take them well prepared, she has moved from Murcia to check out these books after finding out on Instagram about the reopening of the loan service.Loans and returns of books and purchases of material with support can be made in the three rooms of the CRAI of the UPCT, those of the Alfonso XIII campus, Muralla del Mar and CIM, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:00 to 13:00 :30 hours.

The face-to-face loan service will start through the appointment system, while the return does not require it.The service is carried out with the maximum sanitary guarantees, with identity control of those who access the library and mandatory use of a mask and gloves.

CRAI staff respond to loan requests without the need for students to walk through the book shelves and the returned material is deposited in boxes where they will keep a quarantine of 14 days before being able to offer again for a loan.The CRAI Library has offered numerous electronic services during confinement.

"With the online syllabus I have studied these days with electronic resources, but it is always good to have physical copies on hand," said the first student to use the loan service.The exams for the June exam begin on June 6 and end on July 30, according to the UPCT's official academic calendar, in which, thanks to the UPCTevalúa supervision tool, developed by the Digital Content Production Center of The University will be able to carry out their exams simultaneously up to 400 students through the Virtual Classroom.Users who want more information can access the UPCT Online Help or send an email to craibiblioteca@upct.es.
