  5. RLUK-RIN study on value of libraries Aim • Toidentify the key characteristics of library provision to support research in successful UK universities and departments. Objectives • To investigate, across a range of universities and departments with differing and demonstrable records of success in research, the nature and extent of the provision of library services for researchers, including such characteristics as • The volume and range of content provided • The nature, range and extent of the services provided by subject specialists and others • To investigate changes over the past decade in key indicators of research performance and in key characteristics of library provision • To assess any correlations between key features of library provision and of research performance.

  6. Some issues • value means different things to different people • describing perceived value and demonstrating value are different activities • available data • correlation is not causation……..
