The City Legal Information Group (CLIG) usually organises a library
visit (late-ish) each summer. This is only really going to be of
interest if you work in or around London, and there is usually a cost
attached (about £15-20), but the libraries are usually
prominent/well-known (e.g. BL or Bodleian).
I'm not sure where this year's is (I think Houses of Parliament) but
can find out for interested parties.
Just to come clean, I am on the CLIG Committee, but am not intending
this as a blatant "sell" (rather I know that details haven't made it
onto the CLIG website yet).
Thanks,

Dear All,
I don't know if I'm alone in this but it seems to me that there aren't
many library visits on the horizon at the moment. I keep checking
journals, newsletters and websites and I can only see one or two
advertised for the next few months.
So I've been thinking...why don't we try and organise a few ourselves?
Why not ask your employers if they'd be willing to let you invite a
few
chartership candidates to come and see your library? Now that summer
is
approaching (hard to believe at the moment, I know) things should slow
down everywhere so taking a few us on a little guided tour wouldn't be
so disruptive, I hope.
Having said that, the library where I work is going to have some major
refurbishment works done to it this summer so I'm not sure we would be
able to accommodate a visiting group. Still, if there's is enough
interest out there, I promise to try my best.
So please, please, if you think you could organise a visit to your
library let us know. I would be really interested to visit any type of
library I haven't worked in before: learned society, government,
picture
and media and particularly prison libraries.
I think this would be a valuable learning experience for all involved
and I'm sure that including the fact that you organised a visit to
your
library in your PDR/Proforma/Portfolio wouldn't do any harm either
;0)!!
Thank you,
