You may be interested to know that there is a research database that
your students in sociology, media, geography and arts may find
particularly useful. If your research is on London you can also
submit a summary of your work and help us populate the database.
Researching Cultural and Creative Industries in London (RCCIL)
<http://www.rccil.org.uk/>www.rccil.org.uk
RCCIL is an independent database of research on cultural and
creative issues relevant to London. It aims to make research more
accessible to policy-makers, academics, students and
service-providers working in the field. The database contains
summaries of pieces of research together with bibliographical
details and relevant links. The research can be browsed by theme,
keyword, cultural/creative sector or London borough. It is also free.
The web-based database was launched at City University London in May
2010. It is directed by Prof. Howard Tumber (Centre for Research on
London) and housed at the Department of Cultural Policy &
Management. The website has received thousands of visits from over
seventy countries. We welcome your comments and suggestions and
invite you to <http://www.rccil.org.uk/addresource>submit a summary
of your own research in so far as it meets the
<http://www.rccil.org.uk/74/information/how-to-search.html>RCCIL criteria.
