Dissemination Successful applicants are required to submit a report on their visit within one month of completion. The final claim on the grant will not be paid until this is received and approved by the Commission. As well as providing a detailed account of the visit, conference etc, the report should draw out the lessons for the applicant's own research and related UK research. It should also, if appropriate, highlight any applications or implications for UK library and information services. The report should be written with a view to disseminating the outcomes of the visit to as wide an audience as would be likely to find them of value.
Grantees are also free to publish their findings in accordance with normal research practice.
This might be the most appropriate way of disseminating the results in some cases and the Commission will be prepared to accept a journal article in lieu of a separately written report. In certain instances the Commission may feel that a seminar on the visit, aimed at the research and practitioner communities, would be valuable. These pages were last updated on 1st April 1999.
