Description
Our face-to-face reading and writing café is a welcoming space where you can meet with library staff and other students and dedicate plenty of focussed time to your studies.
This is not a formal workshop. Instead, we provide a supportive, structured space where you can read, write and practise some new techniques and strategies. We will have a short warm-up chat and reflective activity.
Don’t worry what stage of the process you’re at. Just bring along an assignment or piece of work you need to write, pen and paper or laptop, and drink of your choice.
Why not also come along to an academic skills workshop? See the Events diary and Infohub for more details.
