Are you a current RMIT student with feedback or ideas for the Library?
The Student Advisory Board would like to hear them!
Share your suggestions and the Board will discuss your submission at the next meeting.
The Student Advisory Board (SAB) is a standing body of 15-20 students. Its members contribute to Library decision-making by representing student needs and preferences, and by providing feedback and suggestions on Library services and offerings.
The Student Advisory Board meets three times per semester, and contributes to user feedback sesions throughout the year.
Students from all colleges and levels of study across our Australian campuses are welcome to apply during recruitment periods. The members of the Board are chosen through a nomination/expression of interest process.
If you are a student who is interested in joining the board you can submit your expression of interest (login required). Your submission will be considered in our next round of recruitment.
If you are a staff member, you can nominate a student for the Library’s Student Advisory Board (login required).
