Research in Canadian universities has received much attention in recent years. Governments and research councils have encouraged greater communication between industry and university researchers. Recently research councils, university administrators, and university faculty have focused their attention on improving the research environment in small universities. In the paper, the author outlines some of the issues that are deemed important to the conduct of research by faculty at small universities in English Canada. The paper is based on six years' experience as a research administrator at a small university, and on a survey of research administrators, including vice-presidents academic and deans of graduate studies who had research as part of their daily responsibilities. The research was presented initially at the 1988 CAURA meetings. In this paper, some of the issues that are important to the conduct of research at small Canadian universities are outlined.

As we enter a new decade, it seems logical to take stock of the state of our profession and to attempt to assess where we may be heading and what we may be doing in the years ahead. It may be less logical or enlightening to ask a research administrator to make this assessment. Furthermore, I believe that researchers themselves should be identifying the problems and mapping out the new directions. However, there will be certain institutional constraints that will play a significant role in your ability to carry out our research mission; and it is to these constraints that I wish to speak first.
