Research Library News

______

We are pleased to announce that Business Liaison librarians will continue conducting weekly ‘drop-in sessions’ to support the information and research needs of the faculty. Each liaison librarian will spend approximately an hour within the faculty to provide one-on-one training in various library databases, EndNote, effective searching and anything else we can lend our expertise to. We would also like to hear any suggestions for any resources or books to purchase. It’s a great way to get to know your liaison librarian and to know that they will be available to answer questions during that time. If you aren’t available during these times, you can contact your local liaison librarian anytime to make an appointment or ask a question.

The ‘drop-in sessions’ are scheduled for:

Brisbane: Monday 2-3pm. Your Liaison Librarian is Barbara Adamson, available on ext. 7122 or .

Melbourne: Wednesday 3-4pm. Your Liaison librarian is Jessica Morgan, available on ext. 3298 or .

North Sydney: Tuesday (Sally) and Wednesday (Taisia) 10-11am. Your Liaison Librarians are Sally Kurdna, available on ext. 2984 or and Taisia Voronova, available at ext. 2125 or .
