I am an Academic Support Librarian contact for the staff and students in the Edinburgh Law School and the College of Arts Humanities and Social Sciences.

I see staff and students from these Schools and can help with problems or questions relating to library resources and services. This  can include information literacy skills, getting the best from the library resources, how to use literature databases, finding reading material, using referencing management software or other aspects of the Library's business.
