We went to TRL on April 23. Our Teacher did not accompany with us this time. It was a challenge for us to get there. We had to find our own way. When we got there, some of our LINC classmates were already there. A staff member led us to the fourth floor and showed us the ESL books. There are two kinds of labels on the back of the books. One is open shelf for reference, which you can not borrow. The other is open circulation, which you can take home. There are plenty of books, and many people study there. I like this atmosphere. Feng was interested in the card catalogue that are written by hand. She said she wrote many cards that are still preserved in her university's library.
Next, we went to the Innovation Hub on the first floor. A young man introduced us to the 3 D Printer. I saw the machine printing on a flat board. On the back of the printer, there was a bunch of plastic string that went into a pipe that connected to the printer head. I thought the string maybe hot-melted and jet out, like 2 D printer using the ink cartridge. 3 D printer lays down successive layers of printing material, then performs the shape of the object. It is very useful for industry to make models.
We joined the workshop for newcomers at 1 P.M. The coach was so nice. According to everyone 's case, she gave the suggestions. She told us to be active and push the job developer to help us call the company and book an interview.
