Libraries help researchers save time, says new report<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3045833&l=30085&ctl=4096DC4:C073EF2ACA43AF3480FAD95EA31F1BCAD7E1CC818E7927B7&>
University libraries are saving academics time by helping them find quality material more quickly, says a new report.
Academics are choosing the library as their first choice for getting hold of scholarly material because access is quick, it helps them make new connections to related information and the library may be the only place they can access that material. Academics are then using their reading to inspire new thinking and improve their research results.
This picture of the library at the heart of university life has emerged as part of a new JISC Collections<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3045833&l=30085&ctl=4096DE3:C073EF2ACA43AF3480FAD95EA31F1BCAD7E1CC818E7927B7&> report, U.K. Scholarly Reading and the Value of Library Resources<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3045833&l=30085&ctl=4096DE4:C073EF2ACA43AF3480FAD95EA31F1BCAD7E1CC818E7927B7&>, which canvassed more than 1,000 academic and associate staff at six U.K. universities in 2011. The research is part of a wider international Lib-Value<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3045833&l=30085&ctl=4096DE5:C073EF2ACA43AF3480FAD95EA31F1BCAD7E1CC818E7927B7&> project being coordinated by the Center for Information and Communication Studies at the University of Tennessee.
