  • What is new?
  • Who is the potential audience?
  • In the case of research, we consider the following factors:
    • Will it be of interest to a general audience?
    • Can it be made easily accessible?
    • Does it represent an important advance in a specific field?
    • Does it fall within the University’s research excellence themes?
