Importance of Library Skills 101

Good day all,

Library Skills 101 was designed to create an appreciation and awareness for the subject area 'Library Skills'. Many students and teachers alike view Library Skills as an unimportant subject, as it is not a CXC subject. However, Library Skills not only teaches you skills necessary to use a library efficiently, but teaches students proper research skills and also formats for writing SBA's and other projects, to include plagiarism and the various formats for writing a bibliography and citing sources. Hence, the reason for this blog.

This blog will not only serve as a platform for socialization and sharing ideas, but it is a forum whereby students can appropriately analyze and critique each others comments i.e. they learn from each other rather than taking what the teacher says at face value. This blog will also help the to teacher share information that will serve as prerequisite knowledge for upcoming classes; hence, the class discussions will be more meaningful and more interactive, as students will be fully aware of the upcoming topics.
