  • systematic literature searches in databases
  • reference management software (EndNote and Zotero)
  • source criticism 
  • copyright, cheating, plagiarism
  • electronic publishing.

If you want help with any of these issues, or something else - feel free to contact us and make an appointment!

It is also possible to get help with searching and using information and with academic language at the library's drop-in (online) on Wednesdays at 13-15, during term time.
