Courses and teaching
The University Library at UiT (UB) offers teaching sessions on a range of topics from bachelor through to PhD level. In addition, we advise course and programme managers in connection with the development and adaptation of teaching related to our areas of expertise. They include information literacy, proper use of sources, literature searches, reference management and a number of topics related to the research and publication process, e.g. open science, open publishing, research data management, etc.
Integrated teaching
Most study programmes at UiT offer teaching and supervision in information literacy. Information literacy encompasses the skills, knowledge and attitudes that enable us to effectively and properly find, assess and use scholarly sources – a prerequisite for learning, knowledge production and sound professional practice.
University Library staff have extensive experience in helping programme administrators incorporate information literacy into their study programmes. We offer help with adaptation of teaching sessions for all levels and disciplines, and can also contribute to some extent with teaching. Contact the University Library via Topdesk for more information about our support for information literacy teaching, or contact one of our subject librarians directly.
Stand-alone courses and teaching sessions
The University Library also offers a number of stand-alone courses of varying scopes and in different formats. Below you will find an overview.
