To kick off the Year 2000 the Welsh Section of the Library Association
University College and Research Group are planning a day of FREE visits on
Wednesday 16 February 2000 to the National Statistics Information and
Library Service and the Patent Office in Newport, Gwent. There are some
places left so please book as soon as possible to be sure of a place.
The programme for the day will be:
10am - 12 noon Patent Office http://www.patent.gov.uk/
12 noon - 2pm Lunch*
2 - 4pm National Statistics Information and Library Service
http://www.ons.gov.uk/nsils_f.htm
Both are close together in the grounds of Tredegar House, just off M4 J28.
You can attend just one visit if you like, but we hope everyone will manage
both! The visits will be of particular interest to those providing direct
information services in the sciences and social sciences, and to new
professionals wanting to expand their knowledge of information organisations
in the region.
*We hope to organise access to the staff restaurant where participants can
buy their own lunch and meet each other. Start and finish times given above
are approximate and will be confirmed as soon as possible.
Numbers are strictly limited, so if you'd like to come, please contact me
using the attached form or email your details as listed below to
[log in to unmask] by Monday 31 January 2000. Please let me know
name/s
institution
telephone no
email address
whether you will be coming to the morning, afternoon or both
whether you would like to have lunch in the staff restaurant (but please
note lunch isn't included and you will need to buy your own sandwich or
whatever, or bring your own).
