What we do

RIN works with and for representatives of all the key players in the research and information landscapes: researchers, research funders, publishers, universities and libraries. We aim to:

  • improve accessibility, availability and understanding of research information resources and services;
  • promote the development of effective policies and strategies for the benefit of researchers and all those interested in their findings.

As RIN CIC our portfolio of work includes studies for the British Library, the International Network for Availability of Scientific Publications (INASP), JISC Collections, Research Libraries UK, the Institute for Development Studies, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) and the Association of European Research Libraries (LIBER).
