Getting help with finding and using resources for your studies

For a guide on the resources most relevant to your subject area, please consult the subject guide relevant to your programme.
You can contact the librarian for your subject area and book a one to one appointment with them for more help. They can help you with things like finding and accessing sources for assignments, literature searching, referencing and using reference manager tools. Please note that one to ones are available on a first come, first served basis.
We also run a series of online workshops on topics like using digital resources, finding ebooks, referencing and getting the most out of tools like Google Scholar. See the full list of workshops and book your place here.
