Academic Staff

Library staff can provide sessions within the curriculum, tailored to the needs of your students.  We will liaise with you to discuss a suitable timeframe, and will negotiate with you regarding the most appropriate content and approach.

These sessions could include:

• An introduction to key searching tools such as Discovery, a single search to quickly and easily discover the library’s rich resources
• An explanation of different types of literature, including academic journals
• Advice on how to critically evaluate search results
• An explanation of the principles of creating reference lists according to a specific style (eg Teesside University Harvard style). 
• The creation and management of references using the RefWorks tool
• An explanation of more in-depth literature searching eg for a dissertation. 
• Structured literature searching using a relevant database eg CINAHL

In addition, Library staff will also be able to provide, on request, a session which could include some Succeed@Tees workshop content, tailored to a particular group.  The current Succeed@Tees workshop programme is available at Workshops and includes an introduction to academic writing, critical thinking and writing a literature review.

Library staff  will also provide support, guidance and materials if you prefer to deliver any of the above content yourself.

Please contact your Academic Librarian to discuss your requirements.

There are Subject Guides for each Course area. They include access to key resources and support for assignments.

Succeed@Tees is a series of workshops to help students develop the skills needed to get the most from their studies.
