Presentation at the HEA workshop 'Teaching research skills to Law Students: a workshop on best practice '. This event brought together university law teachers and law librarians to discuss legal information literacy and current best practice in teaching research skills on the LLB, the role of law librarians, how research skills are taught (including on-line methods), progression through the undergraduate curriculum, whether for credit or not, and collaborations between law librarians and academic staff. This presentation is part of a related blog post that provides an overview of the event: http://bit.ly/1bIvVhh For further details of the HEA's work on teaching research methods in the Social Sciences, please see: http://bit.ly/15go0mh
