[Lib-helig-l] Libraries help researchers save time ...

Dear Colleagues

 

In case you missed this story,  "Libraries help researchers save time, says report".

 

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.

the rest of the story and link to the report is here:-
