Study Skills: Getting Started

Students are welcome to book one-to-one sessions with their Librarian.  Your Librarian can help you to identify relevant resources, offer refresher or advanced sessions on using databases or e-books, help using journals or finding information online, and advise on referencing.  The quickest way for you to contact your librarian is by email, but you can also phone or ask at the Library Information Desk.
