All in the Method

Thought it was about time I did some new postings! I have an event to publicise, a resource to promote and some free journals to give away! This one is concerned with the resource which is called, simply ‘Methodology’. Not only is it free, but it’s also very useful for anyone interested in research methods or looking at qualitative/ quantitative research and statistics. Methodology is actually run by SAGE, so the journals section will link purely to their publications, but all other sections are totally unbiased. I’ve put a link to the site in the relevant link area to the right.

Ludlow Day

The event is another of those from the Institute of Hospitality: Heart of England branch. It takes place on Saturday 28th June at the Ludlow Food Centre. Starting at 11am, the day will include coffee, and pastries on arrival, a presentation by Production Manager George Rizzardini on the start-up, progress and future developments of the centre , plus lunch and a days programme of events incorporating tours of the production kitchens, dairy, and coffee shop. The price of the event is £12, and to book you need to fill in the booking form which can be found here.

Link Journal

Lastly for now, I’ve got half a dozen or so copies of the latest issue of Link (The HEA: HLST publication). This issue is number 21 and all the articles are Scottish-related, covering topics such as Quality Assurance; Enhancing graduate attributes and Engagement and empowerment. Please come to the Subject Librarian office if you would like a copy
