Spotlight sessions on Arts and Humanities primary sources

 

One of the most common enquiries we receive from Faculty of Arts students is "Where can I find primary sources?" Our database spotlight sessions will provide some answers to that question!

If you're working on essays focused on the eighteenth century to the present you will discover new primary sources through these sessions, perfect for making your assignments distinctive and original. These sessions are especially useful to Year 3 and Masters students currently planning dissertations focused on historical, literary or other topics from this time period.

The sessions will also be valuable to staff and researchers who want to discover more about the early modern and modern source collections within the library's subscriptions.

The sessions will be run by representatives from the suppliers, who are experts in using these platforms and interfaces for research.
