Through the ‘Portfolio of Electronic Resources 2022’ of the Library of the Universidad Industrial de Santander (UIS), students will not only have a platform where they can have the list and description of all databases, their classification, usability criteria and multidisciplinary content focused on learning, teaching and research, but also a weekly training itinerary.
According to Pedro Antonio García Obando, director of the Library, the trainings of the electronic resources that are available, some are specialized in certain areas and others are general. “At the established time and link, the database director providers offer training on the use of this information. This will allow students and civil servants to know and learn more about certain topics.”
In this space they can request training on any of the resources. In addition, there are student library assistants, whose task is to train students in the use of the databases.
The ‘on-demand training’ sessions will be held at different times.
