The purpose of this course is to develop your abilities to search for, to review and to evaluate, and use information ethically and legally during your studies as well as in your working life and life in general. You already have experience with searching for information during your previous studies and from your private life, but now it's time for the next level. Throughout your college studies, you will develop your information literacy and your critical approach to information and will aquire deeper knowledge about information management. You will search for different types of information (including scholarly texts) and learn how to search in new ways (systematically and controlled). We at the BTH library have developed this course, and we hope it can help you along your way.

Good luck!
