| Abstract: | In the summer of 1997 the Marie Curie Centre, Newcastle approached the
libraries of the Universities of Newcastle and Northumbria at Newcastle to
assist in developing a library and information service (LIS) strategy. It was
acknowledged that before the LIS strategy could be established preparatory
investigation was needed to ensure the effective and efficient allocation of
resources. A user needs analysis was conducted over a 3-month period, including
a literature search, questionnaire and interviews. The findings, which indicated
that the appointment of a professional librarian was crucial, have ensured
that the LIS being developed is underpinned by a strong evidence base. |
