These are all there too, but perhaps they could come earlier?

Misleading: Range of digital newspapers – misleading we have access to articles we don’t susbscribe to the native interface of The Guardian for example.

Overwhelming: To succeed on your course you should read beyond your module reading list – scary for someone on Archaeology course with 300 books on their reading list

I always think that when I've got a student at the desk that has never used the library in any capacity, I try and highlight what I think are the main relavent things to them (immediately, i.e to start their reading for lectures)

-Reading Lists and ELE 
-Locating books in the library 
-Borrow/Return
