British Library

Description

Research is central to the British Library's role as the national library of the United Kingdom. It helps the British Library to share their collections and intellectual heritage with people across the globe.

Research, moreover, informs and supports almost every aspect of the British Library, be it curation, conservation, preservation, resource discovery, digital innovation, cultural programmes or learning. The library's staff are active in their specialist research areas and collaborate widely. The British Library is, in fact, an active partner in research projects, and members also co-supervise doctoral research in partnership with universities, covering a range of disciplines and subject areas.

The British Library collections are world-renowned for research across arts and humanities, social sciences, and the history of science, technology and medicine. As an institution that covers all subjects and time periods the library is a unique resource for interdisciplinary research.
