Guide to Research Methods

Isle of Wight Council and other Councils in the South East of England have collaborated to produce a guide to research methods.

If are an Isle of Wight Council employee or are acting on behalf of Isle of Wight Council, as part of a research or teaching programme, we can provide limited online access to the guide, or an on-loan paper copy.

Reviewing and Reading Social Care Research: From ideas to findings (SEARIG, 2009) is a copyrighted guide to the many issues and methods available to researches. While it is grounded in social care, the content can be applied to almost any public sector research that would involve the users of public services and the people who work in them.
