Well, I will add my twopenny worth.
It seems to me that CILIP needs to hire a PR firm to improve the image of
our profession. This could be a good use to put all our subscriptions to.
They need to be in the media more, raising their/our profile. Sending out
dry press statements about the internal machinations of the library &
information world just will not do. We need to be commenting on wider
issues, sounding interesting and informed.
I used to work for a very small charity, which managed to get itself into
the press far more than CILIP does.
More media presence = more 'sexy' image = more pay? Sadly that seems to be
the way the world works.
