The second deadline for Travel Bursary applications fell at the start of March: this time 18 students were successful in their applications, receiving funding to visit other libraries and archives around the UK and abroad. All visits are in support of final year projects/dissertations and some of the successful students from the last round of funding have told us what it means to them:
“I definitely would not have been able to start my dissertation without this trip”
“The visit has been of great value to me as the research gathered from these visits will make up an invaluable part of my dissertation.”
“I now feel confident in continuing with my research and am very grateful for the library travel scheme for allowing me this opportunity.”
Applications are now invited from all eligible students for the final round of funding this year: the last deadline is Friday 7th June.
For further details, including what the bursary covers and how to apply, please see our Travel Bursaries webpage.

The Library is delighted to announce that after a successful first round of Travel Bursary applications, we have offered funding to 19 students to enable them to visit other libraries and archives. All visits are in support of final year projects/dissertations: students were asked to apply, giving details of why the visit would benefit their studies and showing the support of a member of academic staff. The successful students are from all our campuses (Exeter and Cornwall) and are studying a range of subject areas, including History, English, Law, Politics, Geography and Sport & Health Sciences.
Applications are now invited from all eligible students for the current round of funding: the next deadline is Friday 1st March.

Over the last few weeks, the Library staff have been busily attending training for academic reps and recruiting this year’s cohort of Library Champions. There are 23 Champion positions in Exeter and 7 in Cornwall, representing the taught programmes in all subject areas. In reality, even more people are involved as many positions are held on a job share basis.
Champions are asked to collate feedback on Library services, act as a focus group on specific issues and report back via the staff/student liaison committee in their department. As part of the Library’s ongoing resourcing campaign, Library Champions have each been allocated a budget to spend on library books for taught courses. This allows them to quickly respond to students’ requests for extra copies, or for any other texts that the students need.
Library Champions are now meeting with their Subject Librarians and will soon be promoting what they can offer amongst other students in Colleges. Look out for the Champions posters with your own Champion’s contact details and send them your feedback and book requests.
