Well, first of all, welcome to Cardiff University.

那么首先,欢迎来到加迪夫大学。

I'm here to explain what we can offer you.

我在这里向你们解释我们可以提供给你什么。

Now, as a new student at the university, you will probably need some sort of guidance to help you to use the library effectively to study and research.

作为学校的一名新学生,你可能需要一些指引来帮助你有效使用图书馆去学习和研究。

Some of you have asked about a guided tour but we find this rather muddles people.

有些人已经要求做一次带向导的参观,但我们觉得这样容易让人混乱。

So, in this first week, we run a series of talks which focus on different aspects of the library and its resources.

所以在第一周,我们开办了一系列讲座,聚焦于图书馆和它的资源方方面面。

You'll also find that to get the most out of the library you really do need to be computer literate and so all this term we run small classes which will bring you up to speed on how to access the computer-loaded information.

你还会发现为了能尽最大可能利用图书馆,你真的需要会使用计算机,所以整个学期我们会举办一些小型的课程,培养你学会怎样获取电脑中的信息。

OK, now let me give you an outline of what's available to you.

好的,现在我先给你一个能提供给你们的资源的框架。

You'll find that the computers are increasingly used as a research tool.

你们会发现电脑越来越成为一种研究的工具。

Many students do most of their research on the internet and the library computers are permanently online.

很多学生在互联网上做他们的研究,图书馆的电脑一直都是在线的。

Having found what you need, you'll find you can readily save texts on your personal computer space to print off when you need.

在找到你需要的内容后,你会发现你可以很便捷的把文章存到你自己的电脑上,并在需要的时候印出来。

You might think that it is the fastest way to get information but the links can be slow.

你可能会以为这是获取信息最快的方式,但是链接可能会很慢。

Clearly you can find lots on there but much of it is useless information as it is from highly debatable sources - so be critical.

很清楚的一点,你可以在那里发现很多内容,但是很多都是没用的信息,因为它们来自于高度争议的资源——所以一定要有批判性。

You'll also find that the library has loaded several CD-ROMS onto the computers from specialist reference sources such as the MLA.

你还可以发现图书馆电脑上有一些光盘加载了专业的参考资料,比如MLA。

It means we can expand what we offer you at very little extra cost and saves us having to invest in more and more books.

这就意味着我们可以以极低的额外成本来扩充我们提供给你们的东西,省下来的钱可以去购置更多的书。

The CD-ROMS contain exactly the same information as the reference books as the two are updated together.

光盘里含有和参考书完全一样的信息,因为这两个是同步更新的。

Now most of you will need to refer to journal articles in your work and you'll find you can also access these online and we encourage you to do so.

现在你们大部分人都需要在你们的作业中引用期刊文章,而且你们会发现你们还可以在线获取这些内容,而我们也鼓励你们这么做。

Clearly some of you will find the printed version more accessible as it sits on the shelves but I'm afraid the intention is to phase these out eventually.

很清楚的是,你们中有些人会发现仍然可以获取打印版的期刊,因为它们就在架子上,但是我恐怕计划是最终这些会慢慢消失掉。

However, you will still be able to print off a version of the text rather than photocopying the journal pages.

但是,你仍然可以打印出里面的文字,而不是复印期刊那几页。

So you must get used to working online.

所以你们必须适应在线学习。

Naturally we do still have the full range of classic reference books, additional to the CD-ROMS, for you to use and there are several copies of each one.

自然而然的,除了光盘,我们仍然有所有的经典参考图书供你们使用,每本书都有若干本。

This is because some of you may prefer to borrow a book rather than sit in the library.

这是因为有些人可能喜欢把书借走而不是坐在图书馆看。

There is a restricted loan time on these so that they are not missing from the shelves for too long.

这些书的借阅时间是有一定限制的,以便它们不会从书架上离开太久。

Although there is a Section Manager for each part of the library, they are very busy and so, if you do get stuck looking for things, you should ask the relevant Cataloguing Assistant.

尽管图书馆的每个部分都有区域经理,但是他们十分繁忙,所以,如果你在找东西的时候被困住了,你应该去问相关的编目助理。

As your Training Supervisor, I just oversee your induction and will not be around after this initial week.

作为你们的培训总监,我只在这里监督你们的新生周,在第一周后我就不在这里了。
