Library Research Skills FrameworkThe Library research skills framework is a tool you can use to ensure the
appropriate skills are embedded throughout a programme in core and compulsory
modules at the University of Southampton. Not all subjects and programmes will
be the same, but this gives a general guide to work from.
Research skills are essential to support students in the transition to university, to
develop the skills for studying online, develop skills for finding and evaluating
information, to cite and reference appropriately and learn about academic
integrity as well as develop the digital literacy skills required such as managing
their digital footprint.
