New UOC Library training section
At the end of last semester, the UOC Library unveiled a new training section. The aim of this new section on the website is to offer training in basic information skills for any member of the community who wants the ability to access, handle and manage information independently.
This new section is divided into two training pathways: basic and advanced. The first is generally aimed at new students and new faculty, and any other user who might be interested, and the second at students completing their degrees, final degree projects or postgraduate courses, and faculty and researchers.
These two pathways offer access to a series of video training capsules and information skills teaching modules prepared by the Library’s team of trainers, and to webinars offered by the database suppliers themselves.
These materials have been produced as part of the Library Training Plan 2009-2012 which placed special emphasis on e-learning and new multimedia formats including audio, video and text.
