Training sessions and help

Your Subject Librarians can offer help, support and training in finding and using information in your subject area. Have a look at our Subject Help pages to find contact details for your Subject Librarian as well as recommendations for key resources, guides on how to use them, and hints and tips for finding information in your subject area. Many courses include training sessions at appropriate times in the course - check with your course or module leaders for details.

For self-paced tutorials on some core library skills including finding books, journals and useful Web sites, check out our Brookes Virtual package. For help with study skills including maths, statistics and planning and writing assignments, you can use the Upgrade Study Advice Service
