The Visual resources centre faces imminent destruction

Calling all students:

Hello, we are wanting to hear from anyone who has produced work in their course or for their end of year shows this year that in any way is influenced by or has made use of images from the Visual Resources Centre ( the slide library) in Manchester School of Art.
As many of you may know the slide library is under threat of being closed and the majority of its contents disposed of, as it looks now this is likely to happen during the summer break.
There is a small group of us acting to do what we can to stop this from happening and in petitioning the Dean of Faculty of the art school we want to show supporting evidence in how this resource is being used by students.
What are we asking from you?
Photos or links to work you have done that has used the slides
Anything you can share with us via our facebook page below
will be a huge help in stopping the demise of the slide library.
Thanks very much for reading
