Dimension assessment
Where the public support pathway is strongest.
Findability and navigation
15/15A central research-support page connects subject expertise, data, literature searching, publishing, copyright, and consultations.
Literature search and evidence synthesis
13/15Literature reviews, citation tools, and specialist research help are visible from the main support path.
Manuscript preparation and submission
16/20Publication strategy and repository support are explicit, although submission-stage templates are less prominent.
Open access, copyright, and publishing
18/20Open access, copyright, licensing, and repository services form a clear public publishing pathway.
Integrity, reproducibility, data, and AI
17/20Data management and responsible research workflows are well represented across the linked services.
Practical access and maintenance
9/10Consultations, training, and direct service contacts make the support actionable.
Secondary methodology check: the published weighting produces a provisional composite of 88/100 (exemplary band). It is retained for reproducibility, not presented as a rank or award.
Official evidence
Every dimension assessment has a source.
Only institution-owned pages are used for assessment. The public edition will add a correction record and independent-review checks before release.
Brown Library research support services
The official hub links research consultations, literature review help, citation management, copyright, publishing, and repository services.

This record should improve when the evidence improves.
Independent reviewers can use the same six-dimension packet to check every source and note. If your institution offers a relevant service that is missing here, send the official page. We will review it under the same rubric and preserve the change in version history.
