Welcome to the UC&R Group website!

UC&R are currently discussing a proposed merger with CoFHE, for more information see our What's New page.

UC&R Group aims to provide a focus and a forum for the professional concerns and interests of everyone working in national, research or academic libraries, linking those with current and emerging issues and developments and the overall direction of CILIP’s corporate plan. To this end, the website aims to keep you in touch with:

• new professional developments
• training
• events and other networking opportunities
• our publications
• activities
• useful resources

In addition, link to your own region's website to see what's going on and how you can get involved locally. It is an ideal way to:

• meet colleagues locally and share work experiences
• expand skills you may not be able to use in your current post
• contribute to relevant events and conferences
• aim towards becoming a national officer

We also welcome any ideas and contributions for this website, so feel free to contact us.

We hope you enjoy it!
