Research Workshop: Library Resources

Dear all,

We are pleased to inform you that the first research workshop will be held
on 6/3/09 (this friday), 2pm-3pm, at PD practical lab 4.

In this research workshop, Mr. Chang Tiam Chau from library will come over
to talk on library resources. He will focus on IEL, Science Direct, Scopus
and JCR besides other relevant online journals (such as ieeexplore).
If you require help with citations, Mr. Chang will be able to share
information on citation styles like APA and MLA.

For those of you who intend to start your PhD study but do not know what
library resources we have at UTAR, you are strongly encouraged to attend
the workshop. For your information, the subscription of the academic digital
libraries is not cheap. For instance, personal subscription to ieeexplore
is USD35 for 25 papers a month. This is in addition to the member fees of
IEEE. I hope that we together can better utilize the library resources
so that we won't unsubsribe the services next year due to low utilization.

Please forward this message to your postgraduate students as well.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Regards,
Soung
