SO LET’S GO TO THE LIBRARY

1. Do you know your user number and PIN? (let’s get you one!)

2. Do you know where teaching books might be found?

3. Collect any library guides that you think might be helpful.

4. See if you can find a book in the catalogue, & start your own list

5. Log into Mahara and find the library pages.
