The liarians‘ relationships with academics varied though in general, there was a noticeable gap between liary and academic staff Within the ‘pre-1992 university each department had a member of staff responsible for liary liaison but communication with the department, other than for subscription services, often relies upon the development of personal relationships rather than a formal link. A department with a notably cae relationship to the liary was Law where the subject liarian attended staff meetings regularly and was trusted to buy new digital resources. The use of digital resources within different departments did not necessarily depend on the relations between academic staff and the corresponding liarian. The use of digital resources was reported by liarians to vary markedly within subjects and disciplines.
