The document discusses guidelines for library services for international students produced by a project group formed in 2006. It provides definitions of international students and discusses why focusing on services for international students is important now given trends in globalization, competition, and growth in international students. It also summarizes research conducted by the project group which found that while most UK universities had international strategies, few libraries had specific strategies or staff dedicated to international students. The remainder of the document outlines key concepts libraries should consider when developing services for international students, such as managing expectations, staff development, adapting resources, information literacy support, communication, and developing an overall strategy. It also lists examples of best practices and provides information about workshops being held to discuss implementing the guidelines.
