InfoHelp - a personalized session with your librarian

Start on your thesis or research paper on the right foot by getting a HSSML librarian to guide you through
searching for articles, books, statistics and information sources you may require for your thesis.

Eg. if you are researching the beer industry - let us know whether you are interested in market share data,
logistics management, the use of technology, etc.
