The SRC provides libraries and academic departments with the ability to create discrete areas within the Metis eLibrary devoted to resources for schemes of work, examination courses and subject-based exhibitions. Each subject area can be set up as a mini-platform and be administered separately from the eLibrary.
The SRC allows a subject/department to create a space to educate and inspire students. When the SRC is linked with the eLibrary and the Super Curriculum Builder the staff and students linking them with a powerful knowledge-based community.
Schools that have an established digitalised heritage collections based on their archives can use the SRC to embed relevant material within these subject areas. The ability to use digitised archival materials in lessons and other activities can significantly add to a student’s learning experience and offer them alternative perspectives to the subject.
