The ISS Library supports students and staff in various aspects of their education and teaching. The library provides mandatory and optional workshops on information literacy for Master students, and teaches PhD candidates in the Erasmus Graduate School of Social Sciences and the Humanities (EGSH). Next to helping students improve their information literacy, the library supports ISS staff with their teaching in various ways.
Teach with the library (for lecturers)
The E-modules information and academic skills are short, online modules for students and PhD candidates on how to effectively search for, manage and create scholarly information. You can easily add information skills e-modules to Canvas. We show you some examples of what's possible.
Most master's students at ISS will join mandatory library workshops to improve their information skills, or one of the optional workshops on referencing. Can your students use more support? Contact their faculty liaison to request a workshop. Check out our workshop overview to see what is possible.
