UK Research Reserve (UKRR) - First members sign up

15 July, 2009

15 higher education institutions were accepted by the UKRR Selection Panel at its inaugural meeting. These first members include partners from the Phase 1 project and institutions new to UKRR with a good spread of universities from across the UK.

The libraries which have signed up are:

Aberdeen University, Universty of Birmingham, Cardiff University, University of Edinburgh, University of Glasgow, Imperial College London, King's College London, Kingston University, University of Leeds , University of Liverpool, University of Manchester, Newcastle University, University of St Andrews, University of Sheffield and University of Sussex.

Over 14k linear metres of material will be processed during this first tranche of activity. This exceeds our original target which we will be able to achieve due to the flexibility and support of the British Library.
