Supporting research staff and postgraduates at the University of the West of England, Bristol: The growth of library research support

Belger, Jane; Crossley, Jennifer

Abstract

In common with many other universities, the University of the West of England Bristol (UWE Bristol) has developed its library support for research staff and students to respond to the strategic objectives of the institution and the changing research environment, and to push towards open research driven by funding council policies.
At UWE Bristol a small team has been created to support research staff and students. This article describes and evaluates the evolution of the Library Research Support team since the launch of the UWE Research Repository in 2010.
