You can book a research consultation with a subject librarian.  Subject librarians provide specialised research and learning support and act as liaisons to academic faculties, schools and programmes. To book a research consultation contact your subject librarian. Find them by subject.

Research consultations can include::

• introduction to Library services and resources
• assignment help
• Library research skills (e.g. searching, identifying relevant resources)
• using specific resources (e.g. subject-specific databases, eBooks)
• referencing and citing (e.g. citation styles, using referencing software e.g. Endnote)
• how to advance and enhance your research and profile.
