Working Space
The School of History tries to provide all research postgraduates with access to desks, though the growing number of PhD candidates and pressures upon University space is making this increasingly difficult. Working space is allocated by the Director of Postgraduate Studies; students should initially make contact with Mrs Elsie Johnstone in the School Office, St Katharine’s Lodge (tel 462907; e-mail pghist@st-andrews.ac.uk.) There are also a number of postgraduate carrels in the University Library for use by students. Please contact the main library for details.
Working space is at such a premium that, if you are allocated somewhere to work, it is essential that you use it regularly; if you do not, your desk will be re-allocated to another postgraduate.
