AUL Dissertation Visit

S6 pupils in the Advanced Higher English and History classes spent some time recently in our school library learning how to use Primo, the catalogue of The Sir Duncan Rice Library at the University of Aberdeen. They were able to search and select possible resources that might help them with their dissertations.

On Monday 15 September, the pupils travelled to the university library with Mrs Forster, Mrs McCudden and Mrs Toonen, to use its resources, experience an academic library and see student-life for the day. The pre-planning, the discussions, the catalogue searching, the selecting and the subject knowledge all meant that the group returned to Elgin with great resources and was an example of great team work.

Thanks to the staff at Sir Duncan Rice Library for a productive and valuable day.

If any pupil would like more information about the university library catalogue Primo, or about access to journals, please speak to Mrs Toonen .
