Black Freeday at BCUL

If you’re worried about missing out on a bargain in this month of warm-up exercises before the end-of-year sales sprint, look no further! Bargains are closer than you think.

This Friday, and every other day of the year, BCU Lausanne is proud to offer you free access to a wide range of online resources.

You’ll find Pressreader, for example, which will help you prepare your party menu as well as unstoppable arguments on all political subjects for the endless debates that lie ahead at the dinner table. Or eLectures, which will provide you with the knowledge you need to make the most of the latest literary releases, or simply the material you need to read by the fireside (or under a warm blanket). Or Assimil, so you can write to Santa Claus directly in Finnish, giving you a definite advantage when it comes to dividing up his gift budget. And finally, you’ve opted for an 85-inch TV screen to nail your brother-in-law, but now you can’t afford to pay for subscriptions to streaming platforms… it’s annoying. But Medici.tv or Qwest.tv will still allow you to blow his mind with a Robert Glasper concert that will freeze him in place as he attacks the peanuts.

In short, you’ll save money without giving in to those wonderful end-of-year traditions we all look forward to. So spend your Black Friday exploring the huge repertoire of what’s on offer and watching old Swiss films on Artfilm rather than catching the latest virus in crowded stores. It’s a piece of friendly advice that’s also free… and all year round.

Oh yes, to take advantage of these offers, there’s only one condition: you must be registered with the BCU Lausanne… and have electricity… but that’s another problem.
