Collection Strategies

Collection Strategies connects University staff, students and researchers with the physical and digital collections they require to support their work. We ensure that high-quality Library resources are provided promptly, sustainably and cost-effectively. We make our resources usable, easy to access and discover. We constantly seek new ways to acquire and evaluate the right resources for the whole academic community, supporting our status as a National Research Library.
