We're changing the organisation of our etutorials

We are updating the organisation of our etutorials. We'll have only one section called "Information Skills etutorials". You'll find links here to interactive tutorials, presentations, videos and documents to help you to develop your information seeking skills and learn more about our resources.

The "Getting Started etutorials" section will be deleted. All the content here will be moved to the new Information Skills etutorials section.

Please contact us if you have any problems accessing our content during the transition period.
