The CPDWL satellite conference 2015 will be held at Milnerton Public Library north of The Cape Town City 12-14 August. The satellite theme is Taking charge of your LIS career: Personal strategies, institutional programs, strong libraries.

We now invite proposals for papers, research reports, workshops, personal stories, and poster sessions. Some proposals will be considered for publication in the online proceedings in the IFLA institutional repository. First-time presenters and new professionals are encouraged to apply. Students in the final year of studies are also invited to participate.

You find the call on http://conference.ifla.org/ifla81/node/969 where the proposal submission form also is linked.

Looking forward to receiving your proposals on 1 December 2014 at the latest!

Resolution Timing of IFLA Venue Announcement

For those of you who missed the PC blog message:

After our demand at the leadership brief this year in Helsinki, the PC  agreed to recommend a change in timing to the Governing Board.  In consultation with National Organizing Committees, the GB, and the PC, will find a way to time the venue announcement so that IFLA’s committees and members can more easily plan their future programs, particularly for satellite events. Especially for sections without midterm meetings (like us) it is highly recommened to have the time for planing already two years in advance.

And of course we`ll let you know if there are further information.
