• Managing references and EndNote Desktop
• Research metrics
• Using other libraries
• ORCiD and curating online publication profile
• Introductory advice in Open Access, Research Data Management and copyright

Support

• We have a range of online resources available.
• We can arrange bespoke workshops for groups. 
• One-to-one appointments are available.  
• We have a virtual ‘drop-in’ slot each Tuesday 15:00-16:00 in term time, where you can ask questions of one of our Research Skills Advisors.
