An academic library service has an integral part to play in a positive student experience. If you are a new or existing member of staff we aim to show you how Library and Learning Resources can help your students achieve their full potential. We also offer a full range of resources to support your academic research.

Librarians will attend a range of departmental and staff and student meetings to discuss library matters with students and academic staff - we always welcome your feedback.

Learning and Teaching Team

We have oversight of the library and information skills required by students, researchers, academics, and wider partners, e.g. schools and FE, and work with academics and students to deliver these essential skills through:

• Tutorials/sessions听with students and staff offering support on using library materials (print and electronic) and developing search strategies so that library users can听get听the most from our resources.
• Non-course specific听听for students, highlighting key resources and explaining how to develop search strategies to ensure that students get the information they need for their research and assignments.
• Timetabled in-class/online library induction sessions for new students; and library and information skills teaching sessions embedded into the curricular for each year group. These sessions introduce library services; and develop knowledge in identifying and searching the relevant subject-related print and electronic resources.
