Teaching and Learning Support Services in Savaria Campus Library

Abstract

My paper presents the digitaltools and services that Savaria Campus Library, University of West Hungary provides for the users in the constantly changing learning environment. Besides the traditional library services our library is engaged in e-learning, provides training for the teachers and the students, and also provides methodological support for preparing e-learning materials. Applying podcast technology our library wants to revive the so-called “Szombathely model”, which was an educational methodology in the 1980s based on state-of-the-art technology. Our library supports educators in shaping the digital educational and research environment by providing tools, technology and methodology. We also help teachers in originality checking to fight plagiarism by providing Ephorus (Turnitin) service. We also support the learning and teaching activities by building an electronic document repository.
