…is now available through UEL Library’s brand new Info Skills tool. The culmination of several months work in collaboration with UELConnect, Info Skills has been designed as a quick access guide to the basics of finding and using information sources for university assignments. Broken down into the four key information skills (identifying, finding, evaluating and referencing information) guidance is provided in bite-size chunks through a variety of means, from bullet-pointed notes to downloadable PDF guides, visual demonstrations, video testimonials and interactive quizzes. Add to this a set of FAQs (e.g. ‘What is an Athens account?’), a glossary of ‘library’ terms and a link through to our Ask-a-Librarian chat service, and we hope to have provided new and current students with an invaluable online tool to dip into as and when needed.
Why not check it now at: http://www.uel.ac.uk/infoskills. If you are a student then please tell your friends about it. If you are an academic then please promote it to your students. And if you are unaffiliated with UEL, then don’t be afraid to try it out. It has been made available as a free tool for use by anyone no matter where they may live, work or study!
