Details of the LIRG Research Scan Award for 2012/13 have just been announced<https://sites.google.com/site/lirgweb/home/awards/lirg-scan-award>. The value of the Research Scan Award is £500. The Scan Award 2012/13 will look for proposals about what LIS practitioners want from research. To inform the development of a research policy for CILIP, LIRG are funding a scan of the literature which will help address the question - what do LIS practitioners want from research? The closing date for submissions is the 7th January 2013.
The scan should cover the published literature, across all domains of LIS and focus on at least the following questions:
* What kind of research is relevant to LIS practitioners?
* What do practitioners understand by "research" and how do they use it?
* What are the barriers and facilitators to using research in practice?
