We are offering a programme of workshops in the Library to help you make the most of the resources and services available to you and support you with your academic work. There are two strands to this programme, Using Library resources and Writing and study skills.
Using Library resources
Workshops are in addition to subject specific sessions that the Faculty Librarians deliver within the Schools. All Workshops are free and open to UEA students on a "drop-in" basis and are non-subject specific. Most workshops will be for small groups. Workshops will be held across the campus and in the Library.Academic skills workshops
The Learning Enhancement Team runs a series of workshops to help you develop the skills you need to be successful in your studies at UEA. Workshops take place in the Library on Wednesdays 2-4pm in the Autumn and Spring semesters. Most workshops will be held in the Library Conference room on Floor 0 of the Library or LaRC2 which is on Floor 02 of the Library. The programme is open to all students registered on UEA courses. No booking is required, but places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.Spring 2013 Workshop Programme
