Information Literacy

Information Literacy is a key skill taught by your Faculty Librarians. We usually meet you in a lecture or workshop at least once during your course. Lecture and workshop content is supported by online learning resources which you can explore in your own time to develop this crucial skill for your studies and beyond.

Staff members: contact your Faculty Librarian to discuss embedding Information Literacy into your course
