This is not an exhaustive list of links, but resourcees I have collected over the time I have been working with JISC RSC SE. Please feel free to share any others and I will add them to this list. It will grow as new resources are developed. I will distribute a few times a year with the updated version. Also I have tried to check links, but let me know if websites are no longer active.
