for Research

70%

use of the Library continued to grow with visits to the

Library by postgraduates having increased by 70% over the past five years.

To provide opportunities for research students to present their research in

a nurturing, interdisciplinary environment three thematic based Research

Cafés on Bioinformatics, Alternative Politics in Hong Kong, and Nature and

Automation were organized. Our thanks to all involved. We also continued

staff restructuring and recruitment took place to create the Research

Support and Digital Initiatives team at the end of 2014/15. The Library

was successful in obtaining additional funding towards the building

of a Digital Scholarship Lab, which will open in Spring 2016. In addition

the Library has been an active partner in the AIMS project and has

been encouraging and supporting academics to claim their online IDs

and publications.
