Referencing Support Services (Fremantle Campus)

What has it been like using Notre Dame’s referencing guide as part of your studies or teaching ? We want to know!

The Library is evaluating this referencing guide and we’d like to learn about the student and staff experience in using the guide. In 2015, the Referencing Guide received 44,000 hits on the home page alone, , and 175,000 hits on all pages combined. So although we know it’s being well used, we’d love to know what could be improved, what are we missing, what are we doing well?

We are currently recruiting for focus groups (6-8 participants, informal discussion) which will take place on campus, mainly during the week of April 18 (Week 8).

Coffee and donuts will be provided, and discussion will take less than one hour. All contributions will be made anonymous.

Interested students or staff should call past one of the Fremantle Campus Libraries to collect the Participant Information Sheet and the Consent form or check their my.nd.edu.au email for copies of these forms which were sent to all Fremantle students and staff on 4th April 2016.

 

Thank you for helping to improve our services.
