Abstract
This article is an account of a Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP) Yorkshire and Humberside Member Network visit to Insight: Collections and Research Centre at the National Science and Media Museum in Bradford, West Yorkshire. It highlights the range and depth of their collection and some of the research currently being undertaken. Their library is an underused resource and efforts are being made to enhance the accessibility and usage of the whole collection. The article hopes to illustrate how the collection is extremely useful and fascinating to those studying social history, not just science and technology. The visit allowed the author to continue her professional development (CPD), benefitting both her studies for a CILIP-accredited qualification and her work in Libraries and Learning Innovation. This article is an expanded version of a report on the visit written for the CILIP Yorkshire and Humberside Member Network blog (Green, 2017).
