As a Postgraduate Researcher at the University of Sunderland you can draw on the experience and knowledge of our Academic Liaison Librarians. You can organise one-to-one appointments with the librarian who can best support your research area. Our academic liaison librarians all work closely with academics in specific schools and faculties and have the knowledge to guide you to find information and interrogate the best collections and databases available. 

Please let us know who you are and something about your research interests, and we can match you up with a Library Research Buddy so you can:

• have an informal chat about your research with one of our expert liaison librarians.
• have a refresher on what research support the library can offer.
• get expert advice on advanced literature searching.
• gain advice on keeping up to date with research in your field.

Just complete the form and a member of the team we be in touch.

Engaging with your research buddy will support you with sections 1.1; 1.5; 1.8; 2.1; 2.2; 2.3; 2.4; 2.5 of the RDF.
