The GSB Library has a small but dedicated team of professional librarians who work closely the faculty, staff and students of the GSB:
Connecting users with the most relevant resources available to them within the GSB Library, at UCT Libraries, or in the larger research world:
Access to a wide range of electronic resources - databases, journal articles and ebooks
A collection of print books, specialising in the field of business and management
Past GSB MCom/MPhil/PhD dissertations which are available at OpenUCT.
Inter-library loan facilities
Reciprocal agreements with other South African Business School libraries
Supporting the research and information needs of the GSB community through:
Hands-on training sessions on accessing resources - both electronic and physical
Reinforcing academic integrity through in-depth sessions on plagiarism and the steps to avoid it
Encouraging the use of citation managers to facilitate good and accurate referencing techniques
Being available and accessible to the students, face to face, via e-mail or telephonically providing a high level of service regardless of the students' physical location.
By being embedded with each programme the GSB offers, the Librarians have a high level of understanding the needs of the students and the requirements of the academic staff which allows the skills of the librarians to underpin all academic activity.
