Training sessions on the new look honni

To help promote the new look honni and ensure our library users are getting the most out of the service, short training sessions will be held across various sites over the coming months. They will take the form of short, 20 minute sessions, covering key aspects:-

An Introduction the Medical & Healthcare Library
How to find books (including e-books)
How to find journals (including e-journals and how to order articles)

In addition subject librarians will be delivering profession specific sessions lasting about 45 minutes, so why not check out when your subject librarian will be in your area and call in to find out more about how they can help you.

Look out for the posters that will be displayed on site outlining in more detail the time of each session.

New honni website

The new honni website uses advanced web searching to combine book and article searching in a single interface to make resources easier to find. The new approach provides a radically different way of searching for library resources and has required complex and detailed development work which will be ongoing for some time. Please bear with us in this initial phase as we complete the full range of enhancements.

We are keen to know what you think of the new site. Do you find it easier to use? Are you able to access easily the resources you are looking for? Do you like the look and feel? Or any other comments you may wish to make.
