Chasing your dreams? Love to get involved in the university community? Meet some like-minded students working in CQUni libraries! We caught up with some of our Library Peer Advisors to find out what drives them to make a difference in the future and how CQUni is helping them achieve that dream. Peer Advisors are students too, working study friendly hours in the library, keeping our libraries open longer and ready to assist you with library and IT enquiries. Let’s meet them!

Shirley from Melbourne

Georgia from Gladstone
Georgia dreams of sharing her passion for cooking and nutrition with the next generation and is making that dream a reality with her current enrolment in a Bachelor of Education (Secondary). She likes to keep busy, cooking, house sitting and regular games of Netball and touch.
In the library, as an experienced student, Georgia can share her knowledge with others. She is a big fan of the longer library opening hours during term time, especially for distance students and sees the library study rooms as the perfect place to knuckle down with a group to get assessments done.
