Drop-in sessions
We'll answer quick questions and show you which resources to use. If the 10-minute session isn’t long enough, we can arrange another appointment.
If you can’t come at the times below, please get in touch directly with your subject librarians for help finding information and using RefWorks, and with your academic development tutors (ADTs) for advice on all kinds of coursework, citing and referencing, and more. The ADTS are based in the learning development centres within the schools:
- LDC in Engineering and Built Environment
- LDC in Glasgow School for Business and Society
- LDC in School of Health and Life Sciences
Drop-ins are held at the service point on the right hand side of the Base on level 0.
- General drop-ins. These will run from Monday - Friday from 2-3pm in Room 5, Carnegie Suite, level 1.
