Kick-Start Your Research in 2018!



Research fairs in Edinburgh and Glasgow
Dream on! Couldn't find a picture of a research fair ...

A reminder that National Library of Scotland is convening research fairs on Wednesday 7 February 13.00- 16.00 in George IV Bridge, Edinburgh and Monday 12 February 13.00- 16.00 at the Kelvin Hall, Glasgow.

NLS has broadened the target audience out this year to include private researchers, inventors, academics and postgraduates.

The layout of both venues will be the same as last year with internet access on the tables/ booths for each “stall”.  You'll be able to explore stalls highlighting different services:- 

  • Access, Enquiries & Reading Rooms; 
  • IP and Digital; Archives & Manuscripts; 
  • General Collections; 
  • Moving Image Archive; 
  • Rare Books and Music, 
  • Maps. 
We're told that, as last year, the relevant managers will decide how to staff their stalls, and Veronica will be running tours of behind the scenes in Edinburgh.  NLS will be using social media (of course!), so watch out for more news!
