The Research in the Workplace Award (RIWA)* is a biennial grant that seeks to fund small LIS-led workplace research projects. The award of £3000 GBP/$5900 USD/$6800 CAD aims to encourage and support those new to research. Projects can relate to any aspect of service provision, development or theory.
