[Irtalk] What do academics want – a survey of behaviours and attitudes in UK higher education. | Impact of Social Sciences

The role of the library and the librarian

A major set of findings highlights the value academics place on the role of
the library within their teaching and research. While only 2% of
respondents visited the library to begin their research query, nearly 90%
of respondents saw the library’s most important function as a purchaser of
content. Furthermore, around 30% of respondents indicated that the library
has a role in increasing the productivity of their research.
