Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Tom Ellen and I am a postgrad student at Robert Gordon
University doing an Msc in Library & Information Studies. My
dissertation is based on digital books and digital book projects and
users' attitudes towards them.
As part of my dissertation I have a questionnaire on digital books which
I would be very grateful if you could possibly pass onto researchers and
research students? The questionnaire is attached and should only take a
few minutes to complete.
Thanks,
Tom Ellen

Dear Colleagues
Further to my email sent yesterday regarding the School of Nursing &
Midwifery Research Seminar, I can now confirm that Dr Annie Topping will
present an additional Masterclass session entitled "From description to
theory in qualitative research - a challenging process?"
This session will take place in Meeting Room 1 at the School's Airlie
Place campus between 10.00-11.30am, and will consider the difficulties
that students/authors have with theorisation, as well as the process
from description/thematic categorisation to theorisation in published
qualitative literature and qualitative PhD theses.
Please feel free to forward this message to anyone you feel might be
interested in attending.
Anyone wishing to attend either the masterclass or the seminar (or
both) should book their place by contacting the School's Research Office
(nm-research(a)dundee.ac.uk), to give an idea of numbers.
Kind regards

Dear Sir or Madam,
This email is to publicise the Call for Abstracts for the Doctoral
Colloquium at next year's Critical Management Studies (CMS) conference.
We would be most grateful if you would circulate the attached message to
all doctoral candidates in your institution or department, including
those who have completed their doctoral thesis in the last twelve
months. The stream is open to students from all disciplines.
The conference will be the fifth such CMS event and will be held at
Manchester Business School, Manchester, UK. The theme of the conference
will be "Reconnecting Critical Management" (see www.cms5.org for
details).
The Doctoral Colloquium is intended to be distinctive in providing a
supportive environment where doctoral candidates can present their
research to fellow students.
If you have any questions about the Doctoral Colloquium, or about the
wider Critical Management Studies conference, then please direct your
enquiries to cmsdoctoralstream(a)mbs.ac.uk and we will be happy to
respond.
Yours sincerely,

Dear All,
Nominations are now sought for research student representatives to sit on the SGRS Steering Group.
All research students are members of SGRS and are represented by the elected representatives. The Steering Group meets formally twice a semester to develop and guide the activities of SGRS. The elected representatives will also be members of SGRS, and as such will work closely with the Director and Research Services Officer in planning SGRS events to meet the needs of research students.
It is hoped that the elected representatives will reflect the range of academic disciplines across the Faculties, and will include at least one first year student and one part-time student.
The nomination form and further details are attached to this email. The completed forms should be returned to Katharine Reibig, Research Office, 3B1 by Oct 31st 2006. Please note that the forms must be handed in by the proposer or the seconder (not the candidate) in person.
If you have any queries, please contact me.
