Collaboration

We actively seek to engage with and collaborate on teaching, research and engagement projects, particularly within Newcastle University.

If you feel our collections or staff can contribute to your project, we would love to hear from you.

If you are working on a funding bid for a project involving Special Collections, we will be able to work with you to advise on costings and details of collaboration. Contact us at libhelp@ncl.ac.uk
