Dear all,
it is not possible for us to meet in B52 as it has become the departmental office.
We will now be meeting in the park, as the Hicks building room is not available either…Please meet at 11.55 outside B52!

Please ensure you have left the building by 5pm today.
Please also note –
Out of hours use of the lab / dept is not allowed until further notice.
The lab is now open and everything is working. However the main entrance to the dept is closed so the lab should be accessed via the back lane (at the side of the library) or via the side entrance on the Firth court side, up the steps and under the Perak.
Access to office B54, Celine’s office and the locker room is available and electricity and internet is working but access to/via the other offices on the next B1 corridor (Terry’s, Roger’s Jon’s, Ben’s lab etc) is not yet possible.
The fire alarm is not yet working so listen for klaxon / verbal fire warnings. Check the fumehoods are working with Andy before use.
Due to a fire in a room in the Alfred Denny yesterday there will be no access to the building today.
Please work from home or use the computers in other buildings on campus (see http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/cics/computers). The nearest open-access computer rooms are in the Western Bank library, Firth court or Arts tower. You will need your u-card to enter these. The Information Commons Building has 500 computers and other facilities including a cafe (http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/cics/computers/informationcommons).
We will give you more info as soon as we know more. If you work in the Molecular Ecology Lab or are part of the group and did not receive an email from Andy about this please provide Andy with your email address – a.krupa [at] shef.ac.uk
thanks,
Debs
