Making Students Eat Their Greens: Information Skills for Chemistry Students
George, Sarah; Munshi, Tasnim
Issues in Science and Technology Librarianship, n85 Fall 2016

This paper discusses the issues around encouraging chemistry students to engage with information skills and suggests curricular changes which may help to "drip-feed" information skills into degree programs.
