Why not try the information skills tutorial ?
The aim of this online resource is to provide you with tips and information on how to find information within the physical and online Library environments.
A variety of media are used to illustrate how you can access these resources, and at the end of several sections there will be a brief online quiz. In addition throughout the tutorial you can also contact your Subject Librarian for further information. This tutorial is designed to complement the training sessions that students receive in week 1 and week 3 of courses.
