KLaSS is a KEATS module from Libraries & Collections, where you can find a huge range of online tutorials and courses helping you develop the skills you'll need to excel in your studies:

• Getting Started With Your Studies - an introduction to the tools and resources you'll use day to day
• Finding and Evaluating Information - learn how to discern and get the best from the range of academic resources we have on offer
• Referencing and Avoiding Plagiarism - learn what we mean by plagiarism at University, and why it's so important to avoid
• Developing Your Skills With Technology - free online tutorials on using a range of software like MS Word and Excel

If you want to develop your overall research skills we recommend exploring our KLaSS e-learning, our bookable workshops, or our support for Systematic Reviewers. If you need help with a specific task or skill like using e-resources or literature searches, our 1-1s offer you a space to talk it through with a librarian. Book by clicking the button below.

Find a 1-1 appointment

I would prefer an in-person 1-1 appointment. The majority of our 1-1s with a librarian are currently offered online. If this is not suitable - for example, if you have poor internet connection at home -  please use the button below to fill out a form and one of our senior library assistants will be in touch to arrange a time and date for an in-person appointment.

King's Academy provides a variety of workshops to support you as you develop your academic skills, whether you are an undergraduate or a taught postgraduate student.  

All of our workshops are listed in the KASL - Workshops module linked below and are currently offered online. Workshops will be available to book one month in advance.
