Table 7: Research Training and library tours Research Training sessions: 2,161 attendees Research Training Online: 1,179 logs Other Training Events: 68 attendees Induction Tours: 408 attendees • IALS Library organised three well-attended IALS National Training Day for PhD students: The PhD in Law and research methods; The PhD journey: Supervision, research ethics and preparing

yourself for upgrade and vivas, and Researching, disseminating and publishing in the digital world. • The Access Librarian organised five successful roadshows and training presentations of the library’s national services and collections at the law faculties of Bangor University, Birmingham University, Southampton University, De Montfort University and Sheffield University. • The library delivered research skills training sessions to a total of 2,020 attendees during 2017/18 continuing to develop the various sessions including those on electronic information for researchers and LLM students. • During the spring and summer of 2018, library staff offered individual research advice sessions to LLM and MPhil/PhD students working on their dissertations. These are one-to-one advice sessions tailored to the individual student’s research needs, and normally last from 30 to 60 minutes, by appointment. Staff also offered one-to-one help with Microsoft Word and other document creation and management tools to LLM and MPhil/PhD students. The total was 141 appointments which amounted to over 77 hours of staff time. • Library staff continued to teach on the intensive one-week ‘Introduction to Legal Research Methods’ course for new MPhil and PhD students and also now teach parts of the assessed legal research methods module of the Institute’s LLM programmes. With this new development the library’s contribution becomes part of the formal IALS academic programmes and gives it more value and significance. • Two induction days devoted to University of London LLM students were organised during which 380 people were taken on introductory tours of the library and over the year a total of 408 readers took tours. • The library significantly updated the online freely-available guides to legal literature for the legal research guides to Argentina, Books and eBooks, Brazil, Canada, Cases, Foreign, Comparative & International Law Collections, Hong Kong, India, Official Publications, Public International Law, Uganda, UK law, Legislation and the United Nations. In total these LibGuides were opened 64,478 times as compared with 52,412 times in the previous year. • The Electronic Law Library was further enhanced by creating and updating key information buttons for most of the library’s major electronic resources. • The library continues to issue an electronic library newsletter 3 times per year for law schools and law libraries and a monthly information email is sent to all library members. • The library continued to create and develop online legal research modules for the Law PORT service, as part of the Postgraduate Online Research Training platform originally funded by School of Advanced Study. Three online modules were published in summer 2017: an Introduction to citing references using OSCOLA; Researching customary international law; and Treaties and international conventions. Over the last year there were 1,179 logs: 842 logs for the OSCOLA module, 217 logs for the customary international law modules, and 120 logs for the treaties modules.
