The results are in from the survey carried out by the RiLIES2 project in April, the purpose of which was to find out which of the existing resources that support librarians and information scientists when they consume and/or conduct research are (a) well used and/or (b) respected. We also asked respondents where they would go to access advice online on how to set up a new research project of their own.
See the blog posting - RiLIES2 project poll: findings
The post is an update on the progress with the RiLIES2 project which
highlights the pressing need for a centrally-funded community-maintained directory of LIS research resources, held in a known location, with (crucially) a long-term commitment to maintenance.
We would like to thank individual practitioners for publicising and taking part in the poll.

I'm working as part of the RiLIES2 project research team which is currently working on the production of some new research resources and training materials. These are intended to support librarians and information scientists in the use of published LIS research in their work. Additionally they will serve as reference tools for librarians and information scientists interested in conducting research projects of their own.
We are keen to ensure that we do not replicate existing provision of resources, and to identify the best format and “home” for the resources that we produce. To this end we invite you to complete this short poll. Its purpose is to find out which of the existing resources that support librarians and information scientists use and/or conduct research are
(a) well used and/or
(b) respected.
The poll is aimed at LIS professionals who are based in the UK, but if you live in another country, we would still be interested in your answers.
Please follow this link to take part<http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/878039/RiLIES-2-Initial-Poll>. The poll will remain open until the end of April.
Thanks
