The very first Writing Marathon, or Writathon, was held on Friday, 24 May by the Centre for Postgraduate Studies in collaboration with the Rhodes University Library. Teams of postgraduate scholars came together, set loose and wrote for eight hours.

Reading academic literature is a big part of postgraduate research, and the ability to review and report on pertinent literature is an important academic skill. But many postgraduate students struggle to make sense of the functions of the literature as it pertains to their research.

The existence of vast amounts of information- a lot of it free- on the Internet might suggest that the library has outlived its usefulness. But has it? The Rhodes University librarians proved otherwise in a short "Using the Library for Research Purposes" workshop on Thursday 23rd May 2019

On Tuesday 21 May, postgraduate students eagerly walked into Eden Grove Red, where Prof Sioux McKenna was facilitating a workshop on how to apply for scholarships or grants.
