Regent College London adopts Talis Aspire and Lean Library to Maximise Student Success
Posted on 24th July 2025
Regent College London (RCL) are partnering with Technology from Sage to implement Talis Aspire and Lean Library. This will provide the college’s 10,000 students with streamlined access to library holdings via Talis Aspire, an integrated resource list management system.
RCL offers Higher National Certificates, foundation year routes, foundation degrees, bachelor’s degrees, top-up degrees and master’s degrees in a wide array of subjects, with a focus on employability and developing in-demand skills. The RCL community welcomes students with varying degrees of qualifications and levels of confidence using technology. Students had previously experienced issues with accessing library resources for their courses. Talis Aspire provides a solution by taking the onus off students with centralised course materials readily available via the library – saving students time and money.
Reflecting on this exciting partnership, Chris Baldwin, Director of Digital Academic Strategy at RCL, commented:
“Access to the right learning materials at the right time is essential for student success. We’re excited to launch this partnership, which will empower our students and enrich the overall educational experience we provide.”
In addition, adopting Lean Library will integrates library collections and services directly into student online workflows via the browser extension. RCL’s implementation of Lean Library will alleviate research obstacles for students and provide them with access to both library-subscribed materials and Open Access papers at the point-of-need.
By adopting Talis Aspire and Lean Library, students will have simplified access to course materials and will be able to navigate clearly structured resource lists for their studies. This aligns with RCL’s commitment to put the student experience first and at the heart of teaching and learning.
