University Library Research Skills Programme

News from the University Library's User Education team:

The University Library's research skills timetable for Lent term 2009 is now available online at http://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/cgi-bin/timetable.cgi.

'Introduction to the library' - we are running tours of the library regularly throughout term.

We have several new hands-on electronic resources sessions this term:

'How to find things on your reading list'

'How to do a literature search'

'How to manage your references'

Please book for all of these at http://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/Courses/Bookings.html as soon as possible as places are limited.

There will also be weekly drop-in sessions for help with electronic resources - please just turn up at the IT Training Room any Tuesday afternoon in term time (1:30pm to 4:00pm) and we can answer your individual questions or give individual training on using our electronic resources. You can also book a one-to-one tutorial on using electronic resources by email at user-education@lib.cam.ac.uk
