Description
Our online reading café is a welcoming space where you can meet with library staff and other students and dedicate plenty of focussed time to your reading.
This is not a formal workshop. Instead, we provide a supportive, structured space where you can read and practise some new techniques and strategies.
We will have a short warm-up chat and reflective activity. Bring along a book or article you need to read and a drink of your choice.
Why not also come along to a Writing Café? See the Events diary and Infohub for more details.
This café will take place online in Blackboard Collaborate – guidance on using Collaborate is available.
It will have interactive elements and we recommend that if possible you use a laptop or PC with Chrome or Firefox as your browser. You may wish to use an additional mobile device or another tab in your browser for the interactive elements.
You can access session materials beforehand from the Study Skills Blackboard course.
