In addition to your course, the Library offers online resources, courses and workshops to help you develop your information literacy.
Information and Digital Skills
Searching, evaluating and managing information are the cornerstone of academic studies.
Because it is critical you develop information skills as a student or researcher, most BCU courses include learning outcomes related to information literacy which contribute to your final marks.
Our skills pages contain resources that will help you build the skills required to meet your information and digital literacy learning outcomes, and continuously develop throughout your BCU journey
