E-Books
The Library is committed to continually improving services in both its physical and virtual environments. As part of this process, we are developing a collection of E-Books which can be accessed any time, any place, anywhere i.e. both on and off-campus. This makes library resources easier to use and provides 24/7 access which facilitates the way each individual studies. Titles have been purchased to support your studies and include topics such as;
- Becoming a teacher
- Language and literature
- Parental involvement in education
- Managing pupil behaviour
- Research and study skills
- Teaching Maths, Literacy, etc.
- Teaching Practice
