Research Skills sessions for Lent Term 2011

From the Research Skills & Development Librarian, Dr Emma Coonan:

Research Skills sessions for Lent Term 2011 are now available at
http://www.training.cam.ac.uk/cul/event-timetable. This term's focus is on information skills - where to look for the kind of information you need and how to manage it once you've found it!

Courses include:

* Newspaper research - both current and archival sources, printed and online
* Literature searching skills
* Reference management - tips for good practice and an overview of
available software
* the DSpace@Cambridge repository: how uploading your PhD, MSc or MLitt
can help increase the visibility of your research

Please note that booking is now required for all courses, including sessions held in the UL's Morison Room (previously not bookable).

With best wishes for your study and research this term,

Emma Coonan.
