Welcome to NoWAL
Widening access to library resources and improving learning and information support services through innovation, influence and partnership.
NoWAL is a consortium of all the UK University and Colleges of Higher Education libraries in Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside.
New NoWAL CPD Programme

A programme of NoWAL Continuing Professional Development (CPD) events is now underway.

Delivered by and for NoWAL members, the NoWAL CPD Programme will explore issues currently facing academic libraries, with events aimed at a range of staff and using a variety of formats.

A small number of places are still available for a "Manchester TeachMeet", a free half-day event taking place on Tuesday 17th January 2012 at the University of Manchester. Further information on this event is available by clicking here.

Dates have now been confirmed for two further events: "Wider academic skills: the role of the library" on Wednesday 18th April 2012 at the University of Salford, and "Technology and workflows: Resource Management for Efficiency" on Monday 25th June at Lancaster University. Further information on both of these events is available on the Training & Development page.

A selection of the presentations and other useful documents from recent NoWAL CPD events are available on the NoWAL website. This includes the "Supporting research and researchers" and "Mobile devices - more questions than answers?" events. Please go to the Training & Development page, and scroll down to see details of previous events.

Our new, collaborative approach to NoWAL events will see the programme continue to develop over the coming months, so watch this space for further details of forthcoming events as they are released.
