Researcher Support

Research Support - Supporting Researchers

One of the ways we support our research staff and students is by sharing relevant weblinks with them.  Indeed, Karen has a Diigo list for this very purpose. You can see Karen's Research Support List here.

Also, if you scroll down the left side of the screen, you'll see her many other lists - there could be useful material there, too.  Feel free to browse.

NB  Why not start your own Diigo account today?  Save favourites "to the cloud", on any device you own.  It's invaluable!

Elevator Pitch - Promoting the Whittaker Library

A Very Brief Powerpoint!

How do you promote a library in three minutes?  Karen was up for the challenge, today.  After the Freshers' Week round of library introductions telling students what the library has to offer, this week it was time to share what the library can offer to academic staff.

Here's her Elevator Pitch for The Whittaker Library, devised for a meeting of part-time teachers and lecturers.

Academic libraries are appreciated!

A recent JISC report provides the proof libraries need - scholars and academic staff certainly do value library resources.
