Library Workshops
Turning 'Search' into 'Research'
Learn how to find and use information better and faster! … plus they're free! ... No Need to Book - Just show up!
Note: Evening sessions may last more than 50 minutes.
We also run a series of Staff Development Workshops which students are welcome to attend - and we would also be happy to see staff at our student workshops.
What students have said about the workshops...
- I’ve attended 3 [workshops] now & I use all the skills that I was shown.
- The practical sessions & applications were most useful as I was able to immediately translate the knowledge/skills acquired.
- These workshop lectures are very useful. Looking forward to more to come. Thanks.
- It was very enlightening – so much more to use!
- Sound alternatives to Google & to get better quality information.
- Glad I attended
- Already started an assessment that will benefit.
