Supporting You
ATU library plays a central role in supporting learning by providing resources, services, and spaces that enhance the students’ educational experience. By fostering independent learning habits and providing access to a wide range of knowledge, we aim to equip students with the skills and resources necessary for lifelong, independent learning.
Access to Resources
We provide access to a wide range of scholarly information, including books, journals, databases and resources which are essential for research, assignments, and self-directed learning. This includes physical collections and online resources available 24/7.
Study and Collaboration Spaces
We offer quiet study areas for focused learning and collaborative spaces for group work, discussions, and projects, to cater to different learning needs and preferences.
Research Support
We offer research assistance, helping students locate and evaluate credible sources, develop effective search strategies, and use academic databases. This direction helps improve research skills and critical thinking.
Information Literacy and Training
Students need to be able to retrieve, evaluate and use information effectively. By helping students to develop information literacy skills, we can contribute to their academic success and help our graduates become independent and successful lifelong learners.
Technology
We provide access to wi-fi, computers, printers and scanners in all our libraries, with access to authorised software depending on location.
Open Educational Resources (OER)
We advocate for and provide access to OER, offering freely available learning materials that enhance student learning and reduce financial barriers.
