News

New Library 'Databases by Title & Subject' and 'How Do I' Guides

There have been a few changes to Library support material. The Databases A-Z list has been updated, enabling you to find a list of databases relevant to a particular subject. Library resource guides are now presented in a 'How do I' format. The updated guides will make it easier to find specific types of information, and assist you with evaluating and managing the information you do find. Research support material that was available on the old guides is now available via the Library website. If you require more tailored help than what you’ll find on the guides, please contact your Liaison Librarian to have a chat or organise a one-on-one appointment.
