Whether you are studying for your A-levels, completing your EPQ or getting ready to take the next step into study at university, the information and resources on this guide will help equip you with the skills to carry out your research with confidence. You will learn about different types of sources and their advantages and disadvantages, how to search effectively and where to search for information.
You can use the side navigation bar or the previous/next buttons at the bottom of the page to navigate your way through the different sections.
Don't forget!
We run regular workshops which you are welcome to either attend live, or watch the recording (or both!) Please do register for the workshops you are interested in, as the link to the recording will be sent to everyone who registers. When you are asked for your Student ID number just enter 'school'. The links on this page will show you our upcoming introductory workshops.
Please note: only current University of Derby students can register for, and attend, on campus workshops and tours.
