A gap in the linking of information literacy skills and bibliographic software
usage was identified in the postgraduate researcher cohort. While the provision
was available, many researchers were not integrating the finding of research
information and the management of that information using bibliographic
software tools. This article describes the linking of these two areas in two
courses presented to postgraduate researchers and analyses the feedback
from those who attended. Overall, an overwhelmingly positive response was
found. Most positively received was the software training, perceived as a ‘new’
skill, while information literacy skills were less well received, due mainly to the
perception of those skills as already acquired.
