"A centre of excellence in digital information management, providing advice and services to the library, information and cultural heritage communities."

UKOLN is a centre of expertise which advises on digital infrastructure, information policy and data management. We provide resources and services to the higher and further education sectors including Web journals and other publications, Web services and tools, innovation support, research and development and events management.

UKOLN is currently comprised of two groups:

• The UKOLN Informatics Research Group (IRG) delivers UKOLN’s contribution to the Digital Curation Centre and an ever evolving portfolio of research projects.
• The Innovation Support Centre (ISC) is a JISC-funded service that delivers technical development, community support, and technical advice to higher and further education.

UKOLN receives significant support from the University of Bath where it is based. More details on UKOLN activities can be found at: http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/activities/.
