The Combined Regions announces roadshow dates for new Unity resource sharing and ILL service The Combined Regions has announced a series of roadshows where librarians are invited to find out more about the new Unity resource sharing and interlibrary loan service. The new generation of UnityWeb brings the previously separate union catalogues of The Combined Regions and LinkUK into one service. The roadshows start on Tuesday 14th March and run until Thursday 6th April, in all areas of the UK – from Taunton to Aberdeen. For a full list of dates and venues and to book your place using the online booking service, visit the events page at The Combined Regions website at http://www.thecombinedregions.com/events.html The roadshows are free to attend and will cover: • An introduction to the benefits of the new service • The opportunity to see the new service • An outline of timescales for the new service • An explanation of how library authorities can take advantage of the new service.
