WestminsterResearch

One way of monitoring the research output of the university is to look regulary at WestminsterResearch. This is the university's institutional repository - where academics are encouraged to log their publications etc. It is managed by ISLS.

As well as browsing all content, you can also browse by author or just view School of Media, Art & Design research (you can also create an RSS feed from this page).

The content of WestminsterResearch is now included within Library Collections Search (soon to be renamed Library Search!); and is also included in the Registry of Open Access Repositories (ROAR) and the Directory of Open Access Repositories (OpenDOAR).  The repository is also indexed by Google scholar. 

The presence of research citations on these sites should increase the visibility of the university's research output.
