Information Research -- an international electronic journal

Talking of available electronic resources, some of you from time to time need to remind others of the fact that not everything is available for you, not even through the 33000 e-resources provided by the Sida-UR cooperation and INASP. For those of you who wish to keep updated in the field of information research, however, there is one online scholarly journal accessible for all of you, that we wish to advertise here: Information Research .

Why this blog

This blog reflects the cooperation between the Swedish School of Library and Information Science (SSLIS) at the University of Borås (UB), the library at the Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH), and the library of the University of Rwanda within the framework of the Sida Research Training Partnership Programme Sweden-Rwanda: UR-Sweden Programme for Research, Higher Education and Institutional Advancement. Our sub programme is simply called "the Library sub programme".

Our aim is for the library sub programme to be transparent and shared by all UR librarians. The focus here is on capacity building with and for the libraries. But our intention is also to give information about the overall programme and its activities, especially those with impact on the UR and our sub progamme.
