GSA Library is award winning!

From the Glasgow School of Art library blog:



"GSA was unanimously judged to be the winning 'Outstanding Library Team' at the annual Times Higher Education Leadership and Management Awards at London's Grosvenor House Hotel June 17. Our entry centred around 'InfosmArt', our in-house interactive course in information and research skills for art, design and architecture students. The judges cited our '...innovative use of technology...to help students realise their potential and broaden their research horizons.'"

Congratulations to (SVAG member) GSA Library & Learning Resources on their award!
