This module introduces clients, especially new students, to the library\u2019s services, facilities, and learning resources through a guided tour. Participants will gain an overview of the library\u2019s role in supporting academic study and research, become familiar with the physical layout and available study spaces, and learn how to use the library catalogue to locate print and electronic materials. The session also briefly introduces access to digital resources, including databases, e-books, and e-journals, as well as how to obtain research and reference support. By the end of the tour, students should be able to navigate the library independently.<\/span><\/div>
