Book a librarian
Are you working on a thesis, report or a dissertation and need tips about finding sources and search techniques?
Students, teachers, researchers and other members of staff can book a session for guidance on information searching. A librarian will help you to search in different databases. We can also help with your information searching at the Library counter. If you are a distance student, you can be guided via the telphone or online.
Subject Guides
We have created subject guides in several subjects. Here we give you tips on how to find databases and on how to do searches in specific subjects.
Lessons in information retrieval
As a teacher, you can book a lesson in searching for information for your students. The Library offers lessons at different levels both for students and researchers. For more information, contact your subject librarian.
