Tomorrow, 12:00 - 13:00: Ask us any questions on using the Library's resources or services.

Our Library drop-in gives you the opportunity to speak to a friendly member of the Library and Student Team to get support and guidance.

Tue 8 Apr 2025, 10:00 - 11:30: This workshop takes as its focus how sources are analysed and selected for literature reviews. In this session, participants will have the opportunity to practice analysis, and reflect on how they select sources and structure their analysis to construct a coherent argument. For the evaluation of information sources, participants will work collaboratively to determine the key arguments, ideas and any limitations. From this, synthesis will ask that these arguments, ideas and any limitations are then combined to be in dialogue with one another. By the end of the workshop, participants should have a good idea of the process of analysis for literature reviews. *Booking on* Due to popularity, booking onto the event is essential to ensure a place. *Further support* Talk to us online via Library Chat [https://manchester-uk.libanswers.com] now.

Tue 8 Apr 2025, 13:00 - 14:30: Perfectionism has a way of robbing us of that glow of achievement and ultimately making us miserable. Having high standards is good but not if they make everything in life so challenging that we are exhausted before we have even started! If you find that you are never really satisfied with your achievements, spend a lot of time procrastinating rather than working and are increasingly self-critical, then this could be the workshop for you. *Booking on* Due to popularity, booking onto the event is essential to ensure a place. *Further support* Talk to us online via Library Chat [https://manchester-uk.libanswers.com] now.
