Welcome


On behalf of all iSchool staff, I offer you a warm welcome. You are now part of the top
rated library and information science department in the country, and I hope you will
find your time with us exciting, challenging and rewarding.

This booklet contains some of the most vital information you will need as you
progress through your studies. You can find more detailed material on the
Information School website, and you will of course receive plenty of guidance from
members of staff throughout the year.

In addition, if you feel that you need personal advice, information or assistance,
please feel free to approach any member of staff; the Staff section of this booklet,
tells you which members of staff deal with particular areas. You will often need to
make an appointment to talk with academic staff due to our busy teaching and
research work, but please don‟t hesitate to make contact if you need to.



Professor Phil Levy
Head of School
