Library orientation is the first step toward academic success.
It ensures that students:
Know where and how to find credible academic information.
Save time during assignments and research.
Utilize the library’s digital and physical resources to the fullest.
Connect with librarians for academic and research support.
Library orientation sessions are offered:
At the beginning of each academic year, for first-year students.
During the semester for returning students and postgraduates.
By request for departments, lecturers, or research groups.
Students can register online or at the library help desk.
The main goal of library orientation is to:
Introduce students to the library environment (physical and online spaces).
Demonstrate how to use the library catalogue (e.g., Primo) to find books and e-resources.
Explain the range of library services such as borrowing, interlibrary loans, and research support.
Promote information literacy, the ability to locate, assess, and utilize information effectively.
Encourage students to become independent, confident library users.
