Athens Accounts

Ever wondered what Athens actually is and does? Athens is an access management system which controls access to many of the Library's electronic information sources. When you login to an Athens protected resource it checks to see if you are a member of an institution that has paid to use that resource, and if your username and password are correct it lets you through.

Athens Accounts available from athens@trinity-cm.ac.uk, just include your Student ID number, Trinity University College email address and course details.

Mannau hunanwasanaeth newydd

Dewch i’r Llyfrgell a rhowch gynnig ar ein mannau hunanwasanaeth newydd. Maen nhw’n gadael ichi fenthyg a dychwelyd llyfrau, DVDs a chryno ddisgiau’n gyflym ac yn rhwydd.

Pwyswch ar y sgrin i wneud eich dewis, wedyn rhowch nifer o lyfrau, DVDs neu gryno ddisgiau ar y man gwyn dan y sgrin i’w benthyg neu’u dychwelyd. Yn wahanol i’r peiriant hunanwasanaeth blaenorol, nid oes angen sganio’r cod bar tu fewn i glawr y llyfrau bellach.

Bydd y peiriannau hunanwasanaeth hefyd yn dweud wrthych chi a oes eitem ar gadw ac yn barod ichi ei chasglu, ac a oes unrhyw daliadau ar eich cyfrif. Cyn hir byddwch yn gallu gwneud taliad hunanwasanaeth trwy gerdyn â sglodyn a rhif pin.
Darparwyd ein peiriannau hunanwasanaeth newydd trwy brosiect y Llyfrgell Academaidd Rithwir dan adain SWWHEP.

Adnoddau’r Ganolfan Adnoddau Addysgu

Ar hyn o bryd rydym wrthi’n datblygu’r Ganolfan Adnoddau Addysgu (CAA) yn ardal dysgu cymdeithasol newydd a chyffrous, a dylai agor nes ymlaen yn yr hydref.

Er mwyn gwneud yn siŵr bod adnoddau mwyaf poblogaidd y CAA ar gael i bawb o hyd, mae llawer bellach wedi cael eu symud i'r Llyfrgell. Mae’r Casgliad Ymarfer Dysgu bellach ar y silffoedd symudol newydd tua chefn y Llyfrgell. Mae’r Llyfrau Mawr yn y Llyfrgell hefyd, gyferbyn â’r silffoedd symudol dan y staer.

Symudwyd y Casgliad Addysg i’r Llyfrgell ac rydym yn y broses o’i hintegreiddio â’n Prif Gasgliad. Rhestrir yr holl adnoddau hyn a’u lleoliad cyfredol ar HIP, catalog y CAD.

Gobeithiwn y byddwch yn mwynhau defnyddio’r ardal newydd pan fydd yn agor, ac y byddwch yn derbyn ein hymddiheuriadau am unrhyw anghyfleustra a achosir tra ein bod yn y broses o symud ein hadnoddau.
