Alive and kicking: Reflections on the evolving role of Subject Support Librarians at UWE Bristol

Shreeve, Sue; Hamley, Julie

Abstract

In this article Sue Shreeve and Julie Hamley give an overview of how the subject support librarian role at UWE Bristol has evolved over the last five years, broadening from subject information specialist to encompass academic skills support and English language/communication skills support. They outline how they have implemented this change in role profile by evolving the skills set of the subject librarians and share some of the student online learning materials that have been created during this evolution in role.
