How to prepare for the guidance session

  • In the booking form, include the search terms (keywords) you have used, as well as the databases you have searched.
  • Bring your search history with you and be prepared for us to see how you have conducted your searches. The more prepared you are, the better!
  • When we meet, we will look at your previous searches and discuss ways to improve them. We don't give you ready-made solutions, rather the aim is for you to develop and improve your search techniques.
  • After our meeting, you can continue to work with the tips and tools we have given you.
