“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm” ‐ Douglas Anderson and research at the Robert Gordon University
Abstract
Reviews Douglas Anderson’s contribution to the development of research in the School of Librarianship and Information Studies, later renamed the School of Information and Media, at the Robert Gordon University. Against an explanatory background to the Scottish Higher Education system, it outlines Anderson’s work in information and image retrieval, his concern for the role of public libraries in serving the disadvantaged, and his commitment to enthusing students and others about progressive developments in the field.
