The latest “CDI News
As you enter the newly-renovated CDI at the CREPS in Bordeaux, you’ll feel like you’re in a bookshop, with Anne-Sophie’s themed table. She will, of course, have taken care to summarize all the books to help you make your choices.
Comfortably seated, you can leaf through sports news magazines or (sit down to) carry out more in-depth research. And the new co-working space offers a bright, modern setting in which to work alone or with others.
