There's a lot to take in at the start of term, and we know not everyone will be able to visit us during Welcome Week. Don't worry, we're here to help, with lots of different sessions running throughout Michaelmas and Epiphany terms as part of our ongoing welcome support.

They're a great way to help you get familiar with the Library, discover the support and services available to you, and develop your academic skills.

 
Meet and Greet 

Our Meet and Greet sessions provide you with an opportunity to meet up with some of our student team in Bill Bryson Library who have first hand experience of being a student at Durham, and find out more about using the physical library space and services. 

Chat With Us 

Join our friendly staff at our relaxed weekly Chat With Us sessions for a free hot drink and a snack, and ask us anything about the Library. 

Academic Skills sessions 

We offer various skills workshops and drop-in sessions covering a wide range of topics, from finding and managing information to critical reading, referencing, and writing. 

For more information about each of the above sessions and how to attend, visit our Ongoing Support guide.
