Northern Ireland
*** Welcome to the first edition of LINK to be published wholly online in our Newsletters and Reports section. The CDG N.I. committee had to make the difficult decision this summer to publish online in order to combat spiralling publishing costs and continue to make articles accessible to members. ***
The Division covers the whole of Northern Ireland and represents members from a wide range of library and information services.
Committee meetings are held regularly throughout the year and provide members with opportunities for professional development. Current Committee Members come from Public, Government, Academic and Special libraries. If you would like to attend one of our meetings or if you would like to join the committee, contact the Divisional Secretary.
We run a programme of continuing professional development events during the year and we are always interested to hear from anyone with an idea for a course or visit.
The Career Development Group NI division works with CILIP to provide support for people in Ireland who are interested in becoming chartered members. If you are thinking about chartering, please contact the Candidate Support Officer, whose contact details are below.
LINK is our divisional newsletter and it is sent out three times a year to members and other interested parties. In line with the aims of the Group, the newsletter provides information about issues relevant to the local library and information community. Contributions to LINK are actively encouraged and provide people with an opportunity to contribute to the professional literature.
As a result of a project undertaken within the local division, we have been able to provide for your use a gateway to local LIS information. We hope you find this beneficial.
We now also have a presence on Facebook. You will find us by searching for CILIP Career Development Group Northern Ireland or clicking on the link below.
