Come along to a free workshop at the Library!

Find out more about using the Library's online catalogues, databases, and full text digital resources - come along to a free workshop. Our team of library and archive professionals is offering a series of short practical sessions to help you to discover and exploit various library resources.

Workshops are normally held in the Library's e-Learning Room at 14.00. They will last approximately one hour. Places are limited and pre-booking is essential.

You can secure a place on any of the workshops by booking online. Follow the links below for further details or view by date in the calendar. The workshops for each month can also be displayed as a list. In addition, the calendar includes information about the Library's Insight talks.

We can also arrange a workshop just for your group or organisation.
