Skills and training
From media editing to using statistical software, the Library provides training and resources for a wide-range of skills.
Our information and training is delivered through online guides, group seminars and one-to-one appointments. Many of our online resources are openly accessible and can be used by the general public or other institutions, as well as those within the university community.
Upcoming workshops
The Library, Archives and Learning Services run loads of workshops during semester time, both face-to-face and online. They're listed on the Skills Guides, and you can filter the sessions in useful ways: taught students / researchers / staff, or Maths Skills Centre / Digital Skills and so on.
Academic skills
In the Fairhurst we have two skills centres run by the Learning Services Team, providing one-to-one appointments that are individually tailored to the needs of each student. Our tutors are experienced in advising students in all subject areas and levels of study.
We provide a huge range of academic skills training across the Library, Archives and Learning Services. Read more about our academic skills offer.

Subject Support
Our @UoYLibrary librarians are the best. Every single interaction I've had with them has been overwhelmingly positive.

Unlock your digital creativity
As well as skills training and support for Researchers, we have two labs in the Fairhurst. The easiest way to remember the difference is that the Creativity Lab is all about software, and YorCreate is all about hardware: develop your skills in both areas.
