Diversity Networks

CILIP’s Diversity Networks demonstrate our commitment to being an ally to individuals and groups that are under-represented, both in society and in our profession. Each of the Networks provide support and a platform for library, knowledge and information workers from diverse backgrounds, and their allies. You can share your experiences, get advice, find events and gain insight and analysis through exclusive articles and resources.

Membership is free and open to CILIP members and non-members.

Your involvement powers our community

The CILIP community is powered by volunteers. Each network’s success is built on the dedication and passion of people like you. If you’d like to be more involved in their work you can join one of the networks and play a part in how they are managed. Each network operates under the CILIP umbrella but is largely independent. To find out more just get in touch to see with your chosen network and see if they have vacancies.
