There is still time for UQ postgraduates and staff to book a place at Doing archival research in the Arts: an introduction. The class is being held next Tuesday, 16th of April at the St Lucia Campus.

Presented by Fryer librarians, the class provides an overview of archival research procedures and methods for Arts scholars. It covers Australian collecting institutions to know about, the difference between archives and libraries, general reading room protocols, rules for copying unpublished material, tips for conducting primary research, and useful online sources.

Staff members have had an exciting week sharing Fryer's collections with UQ students.

Are you a Law student?
Do you need help with Legal Research?
Are you struggling finding information for your assignments or have a specific library problem or question?

If so, come along to a drop in session.

A Librarian will be available to discuss your queries at length at
Wed 2-4 pm
at the Law Library consultation desk.

Please note that Research and Higher Degree students should consult with the Library's Research Information Service.

The Library's Research Information Service - Life Sciences is offering Endnote XV (aka 15) classes.

NOTE : It is essential to have an established UQ username/password to participate in this course.

NOTE : Please bring a usb device if you have one.

The session will cover:

Saving your references into an Endnote Library using Export, Import, Online Search (aka Connect), sorting and searching the library, Inserting references into a Word document, formatting a document in a selected style, and how to get help with Endnote.

Can you recognise the type of resource by just looking at your reading list or a bibliography? This is an important skill as this then determines what search tool you use to find it in the Library. It also helps you construct your reference list for your assignments correctly. Learn how do all this in our Deciphering Your Reading List class, which is running next week. Come along to eZone 3 at 12pm on Thursday 8th of October - no need to book! We'd love to see you there.

The Introduction to Research Skills training session will be held this Friday. Participants will be introduced to the range of specialist resources available. There will also be the opportunity undertake searches for topic specific information.
