Information literacy is one of the vital attributes for university students and for all future PolyU graduates.  Participation in the Library orientation programme is a major first step for new students in becoming information literate and academically successful.

All teaching staff and course coordinators are therefore encouraged to reserve orientation sessions for your students.  Online reservation for orientation classes in the following time slots in September 2011 is now open at: http://www.lib.polyu.edu.hk/cgi-bin/info/orientationReg

As the Library has to cater for all departments, please book as early as possible so that the session(s) most convenient to your department can be reserved.
