Health Sciences Library Tutorial: Introduction

In this tutorial you'll learn how to find books and journals in The University of Adelaide Library, and you'll get an introduction to using the internet.

If you have trouble finding the Catalogue in the Barr Smith Library, then ask for some help at the Research Help Desk, or find me.

If you need help with any aspect of the following tutorial including answering the questions please contact me. I will make sure that you not only get the correct answers, but that you understand how to keep finding information for yourself in future. You must correctly answer at least 5 of the 6 questions. The good part is that the questions are easy if you answer them when directed by the tutorial.
