What kinds of support do you need?

We've got an eye on what kinds of drop-in workshop support ILS can offer to researchers in 2015-2016. Do you have any ideas on how we could enhance the workshops we already provide? We're thinking about:

1. Using NVivo to write your literature review
2. Successful dissertation writing using Microsoft Word
3. Using maps and geographical data in your research
4. Tools for doing market research
5. Using newspapers and the popular press in your research
6. The challenges of using goverment documents, policy reports and other grey literature in your research
7. Which technology do you need for your research? Test driving different hardware and software.
8. Tools for managing reflective practice in research (NVivo, Mahara, blogs)

Currently, we offer workshop support on:

1. Open access
2. Impact factor, altmetrics, influence and all that jazz
3. Introducing RaY
4. Discover Discover for researchers
5. Publishing your research with social media
6. Keeping track of your reading for researchers

Please use the comments field to share your ideas on what you'd like to see: either what would have helped you when you first started your research, or what kinds of support you still need. If you have feedback on workshop format, timing, communication or anything else, please speak up. Thanks!
