Sheila Cannell, Director of Library Services of Edinburgh University, accepted on behalf of SCURL a Library Excellence award for SHEDL as a Shared Services initiative supporting Higher Education in Scotland.
The ceremony was held in the Scottish Parliament and the award was presented by Christine May, Chair of the Scottish Library and Information Council, and also MSP Peter Peacock.

A separate agreement with Portico has also been concluded. All negotiations to-date have been undertaken by JISC Collections working in partnership with the SHEDL Steering Group.
