Information Services

Functions within NUA that provide access to information for the student body and both academic and administrative staff (these include libraries, computing services and information support services). Such functions may be managed separately from each other, or in various combinations. These services routinely explain their facilities (and the conditions of their use) to students, staff and the general public and it is information of this nature that is included within this section. Information services inevitably hold large quantities of personal data that are exempt from general disclosure.
