Law Library Lights

Most of the lights in the Law Library can be switched on using the light switch panel by the Self-Service unit (Switch 4). However, there are a few light switches that must be switched on that aren't on the main panel. These have been numbered and highlighted on the floorplan below.

Please switch on all the lights at the start of your shift (necessary if working a weekend or Bank Holiday).

Please switch off all the lights at the end of your shift when the Law Library is closing.

NB: The light switches on the large panel are colour-coded. Switch off all the black ones first, then the red (7, 8, 9) so you are not left standing in the dark for too long.

Law School & Library Entrance Lights

There are light switches leading from the Law School entrance to the Law Library entrance that need to be switched on/off. These lights are mostly to light up stairways for access and to help show we are open/closed.

These lights may already be on when you come in, but if they are not then please switch them on. However, if it is a sunny day/evening, please use your judgement for areas with large windows - lights may not always need to be on in these areas.

Similarly, lights may be switched off by Security or other Staff when you leave. If they are not, please switch them off.
