Description
Our face-to-face reading café is a welcoming space where you can meet with library staff and other students and dedicate plenty of focussed time to your reading.
This is not a formal workshop. Instead, we provide a supportive, structured space where you can read and practise some new techniques and strategies. We will have a short warm-up chat and reflective activity.
Bring along a book or article you need to read and a drink of your choice.
Workshop objectives
- introducing new techniques and strategies for reading
- a time and space for quiet, focussed reading
The session materials are on the Study Skills Blackboard course.
