Tell your students about the upcoming Post Graduate Library Workshops

Distance Learning —

Bookings are now live for these workshops that are run both at a distance and face-to-face.

NOTE: Students will have been informed about these workshops via the Library and via the February 2020 issue of the Your Distance Learning Campus newsletter. However, some gentle 'prodding' from you might be what is needed to encourage them to participate. ðŸ¤£
