Event series at the library
Take part in our new, regularly scheduled series of events!
In three main topics of 60 minutes each, we offer you the opportunity to expand your knowledge of literature research and management.
1. In Research Training I you will learn about the library's services and effective search strategies.
2. Research Training II focuses on the use of research tools such as databases, scientific search engines and subject portals.
3. We will also introduce you to literature management with Citavi.
For our international students we offer a 90-minute English-language research training once a month. English-language Citavi training courses are available upon request.
Participation in our courses is voluntary. The events take place online at four-week intervals.
