== Custom Workshops for Specific Courses and Programmes ==

Koerner librarians offer hands-on, virtual and lecture style workshops designed to provide your students with the tools necessary to successfully research for their course assignments. In collaboration with your Subject Librarian, a workshop can be tailored to address the specific requirements of the assignment, in addition to building the critical literacy skills that will prepare them for future degree work. Contact your [http://directory.library.ubc.ca/people/subjectlibrarians/People.division_id:17 Humanities and Social Sciences Subject Librarian] to request a workshop.
