Why participate

The bibliographic workshops provide fundamental skills to be used in both study and research activities:

  • being able to select the most appropriate, reliable, and up-to-date sources
  • knowing how to use the most effective techniques to retrieve necessary data
  • knowing how to evaluate and organize the retrieved data

Depending on the general training schedule, for specific group needs, we offer workshops on bibliographic research exercises.
