 Get to know the incredible CILIP Communities - our volunteer networks who meet regularly to programme events, trainings and conferences and publish journals, blogs and newsletters. Any CILIP member can join our community groups, attend events and/or get involved with the committee and help shape the future of their work...
CILIP East Midlands serve library and information professionals living and/or working in Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire and Nottinghamshire. We also cover the non-metropolitan districts of Derby, Leicester, Nottingham and Rutland. Interest in our activities from the wider library and information services community is welcomed.
Aims and Objectives are to open a dialogue with staff across all sectors of librarianship, to host an annual Member's Day which attracts speakers and attendees across professions and at different stages in their career and also to support members in their professional development. The rural nature of the East Midlands, combined with smaller towns as well as cities can mean that working in the region brings its challenges! Learn More
