<div dir="ltr">It's midnight and there are hundreds of students crowded into the University of Reading's library.<br><br>It's a glimpse of how much student life has changed, what students expect from universities and how much pressure they feel about the future.<br>
<br>In the 1970s, students at Reading staged an occupation calling for the abolition of exams. Now, in the depths of the exam season, they are voluntarily occupying the library in the middle of the night, so that they can get in as much revision as possible.<br>
<br><b><font color="#ff0000">During weekdays in term time the library is open 24/7. Never mind 24-hour clubbing, here it's round the clock studying. It's become part of student life in universities across the UK.<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;display:inline">
