Welcoming new faces to the library
Recently the University Library team has welcomed two new Liaison Librarians.
Using primary sources in your teaching
As well as their rich range of physical and electronic books and journals, the University Library provides access to a number of collections of digitised primary source archives. The well-structured nature of these collections and accompanying thematic guides makes them an especially approachable entry point for students inexperienced with primary source archives.
What’s new at the library?
From Semester 2, the University Library will provide referencing support to students and staff through our online support materials.
Library Essentials suite additions
This month the Library welcomes two new information skills courses to their Library Essentials suite.
