From all of the Library staff - Welcome
This set of modules will help you to make the best use of the range of services provided through our branch libraries and online via the Library web pages.
Each module contains basic instructions, tips
on using the Library effectively, a range of learning activities
and some quizzes and questions to reinforce what you have learned.
Look for the icons and the answer button:
Use the modules in a way that suits you best. As a beginner, you should work through an entire module from beginning
to end. At a later date, you may like to revisit individual sections to refresh your memory as needed.
You will benefit most by working online. However, if you choose to print the modules, it is best to select 'landscape' as the preferred layout.

Your Workbook
As you work through the modules, you will find
it helpful to write down your answers. All the exercises are included
in this 4 page workbook (you
will require Acrobat reader which can be downloaded here).
If you wish, you can print this now to fill in as you
go, or download each exercise later in Microsoft Word format
to fill in electronically.
