Information, IT and Study Skills

Information Services provide classes, online materials and one-to-one appointments to help staff and students to develop a range of skills.

Each School has a designated Academic Support and Liaison Librarian, who is based at the Edinburgh Campus and is available to provide support on a range of information skills, including:

  • Citing and referencing.
  • Literature searching.
  • Evaluating information sources.
  • Using EndNote.

They provide classes, including webinars, as part of the Skills Hub and are available to teach in class. Staff and students can also email them with enquiries or to set up one-to-one appointments, either face-to-face or by Skype.

Information skills related Skills Hub at the Dubai and Malaysia Campuses are delivered by staff based at those campuses.

There are also Subject Guides, which have a lot of information and resources to support you (including contact details for your librarian).

To find out more, contact your School's Academic Support and Liaison Librarian by emailing them directly through details on the subject guide or at LibHelp@hw.ac.uk.
