Discover how to easily find library resources for your assessments
The trimester has just begun, but your first assessments will be due before you know it. To be successful in your course, you need access to the right type of information. Don’t stress – Deakin Library’s huge collection of resources provides a solid foundation for your studies!
For the inside word on how to find the best resources for your assessments, tune in to our online workshops next week:
In the session, you’ll learn how to:
- access and search your online library
- differentiate between print and digital resources
- determine if a resource is available
- find your required reading
- use search techniques to narrow your results
- get individual help from your librarian.
Once you’ve registered, you’ll receive a reminder with the link and password to the session one day before the training. This information is also included in the calendar invitation sent along with your confirmation email.
If you can’t make these sessions, you can access texts, reading lists, study guides and selected past exams by:
- entering your unit code in Library Search
- asking Deakin Genie for prescribed texts (if you haven’t already, download it from your mobile app store)
- going directly to your Reading List
- viewing your unit resources list in your unit site on CloudDeakin.
And if you ever need extra help, just contact your campus library to organise a consultation with one of our staff.
