Hi John
The budget has improved for Teaching Resources here and has
made a big difference in a short time. Out of the 38,725k on
Education, 9000k is spent on Teaching Resources.It was 12,000k
last year however! I am also given 1000k at the end of the financial
year from the general bookstock in recognition of the fact that other
courses e.g. nursing and also students and staff borrow from the
collection on behalf of their children's projects etc. I feel I need this
amount especially with last year's demand for literacy resources
and this year with the numeracy hour and with the new 'A' levels
giving rise to a new round of publishing, new editions etc.
I look forward to reading other replies.
