Smarter searching, better referencing, higher grades: how the library can help your students succeed (for Tooting University Staff)

This practical session will give you the tools and confidence to signpost your students toward the services and resources that genuinely support their learning.

By the end of this session, you will know:

  • How to steer your students away from Google/ChatGPT and toward high-quality papers;
  • How to get students referencing correctly - every time
  • When to call in your friendly liaison librarian for tailored support

Need a skills boost yourself? Pair this with our literature searching session (20th January) to learn why a proper review is about much more than PubMed.
