Hi Students,
I am the librarian at Kent Institute, my name is David Hart. I want your studies at Kent to be very successful, so it is important to have access to your textbooks and online resources when searching for journal articles. You should find 5 to 8 journal articles for every assignment, being sure to utilise EBSCO databases available on the side menu of the Kent homepage.
If you have any research questions or problems, you can find me in the library or you can also email me: david.hart@kent.staging-sites.com.au or ring me: 02 90935170. Happy Studying!
