The Mary Richmond Resource Center (A461 in the HSD Building) was donated by Mary Richmond, a former director of the UVic School of Nursing. Her vision was to create a space where students could further enhance their nursing education. The original intent for this space must be honored and maintained by all who utilize the MRRC. With the goals of fostering independent life-long learning, collaboration and promoting scholarly activities, and the meta-concepts of health promotion and caring, the following guidelines for use in the MRRC must be observed:

1. Respect the opinions and thoughts of others.
2. Honor confidentiality.
3. Achieve excellence through problem solving, sharing of knowledge, and research.
4. Maintain a quiet learning environment.
5. Do NOT remove items from this room.
6. Be tidy and respectful of this physical space.
7. Engage in creating a healthy community environment through support and collaboration with others.
8. If room is booked for a presentation, refrain from using the room during that time.
9. Computers are to be used for educational purposes only.

The MRRC is equipped with the following:

• A loan library
• Manuals, and posters to aid student learning
• Computers with internet connection
• Printer
• Coffee maker, microwave and fridge
• Student food cupboard

The MRRC has also been used for:

• Small group meetings
• Nursing Student Society meetings
• and of course a place to hang out

The faculty and students have raised funds for the creation of this space, with a start-up donation provided by Dr. Mary Richmond. Ongoing fund raising ideas and efforts are needed in order to maintain this space for student use and enjoyment. We welcome your thoughts and ideas.
