The Health Sciences Library offers a range of instruction sessions for students. Sample topics include:

• How to do a literature search
• Forming a research question
• Searching for journal articles in databases (e.g., CINAHL, Medline, Pubmed)

These sessions can assist students by:

• Demonstrating that there is someone to go to for questions
• and more!
