The aim of the course (which is part of the basic ones of the three-year degree in history and is mandatory for its archive-librarian address) is to provide students with the ability to search, select, evaluate and use bibliographic information and documents both in the library and on the Internet.
At the end of the course the students will be able to use bibliographies, library catalogs, digital libraries and search engines to retrieve information and documents useful to take exams and to prepare the thesis.
No particular prerequisites are necessary, if not the knowledge of the Italian language and a suitable cultural level for a university freshman.
The tools and the fundamental strategies for information retrieval, especially bibliographic information, in paper and digital environments. Particular attention will be given to libraries' electronic catalogues (OPACs) and to online bibliographic databases

Lessons, meetings and seminars calendar, bibliography, teaching materials and news available at http://virgo.unive.it//ridi/

To take part in the course students must register on the Ca 'Foscari e-learning platform (http://moodle.unive.it/ ).

The lessons are scheduled "in the virtual classroom" on certain days because each course must necessarily have a timetable, but this indication is purely administrative, because the lessons consist of a series of teaching materials (which are put online at the beginning of the week and to which students can access at any time until the end of the course) and in a forum for discussion (constantly available from the beginning to the end of the course). So the course can also be followed by those who can not be online on certain days of the week.

Accessibility, Disability and Inclusion. Accommodation and support services for students with disabilities and students with specific learning impairments.
Ca’ Foscari abides by Italian Law (Law 17/1999; Law 170/2010) regarding support
services and accommodation available to students with disabilities. This includes students with
mobility, visual, hearing and other disabilities (Law 17/1999), and specific learning impairments (Law 170/2010). If you have a disability or impairment that requires accommodations (i.e., alternate testing, readers, note takers or interpreters) please contact the Disability and Accessibility Offices in Student Services: disabilita@unive.it.
