Calling all student members of CILIP UC&RG Northern, or members who are
first time attendees of CILIP Umbrella.
UC&R Northern are pleased to announce that we will be sponsoring a place
for full residential attendance at Umbrella 2007.
Umbrella 2007 takes place on 28 - 30 June at De Havilland Campus,
University of Hertfordshire, and offers you a unique experience to meet the
UK library community, discuss issues affecting your future, and improve
your knowledge. To see the conference programme, go to:

Here’s what other first time attendees say about Umbrella:
“I never attended Umbrella until 2003. Three things impressed me, the
content, almost flawless organisation, and the value of mixing with lots of
colleagues from across the sectors. I wish I'd started coming earlier.”
“CILIP staff welcomed us and assured us that the conference was for
everybody, not just an elite. The Exhibition Opening Party was a great
chance to chat to people over a glass of wine. I soon found my feet and
since then I've been back every time! The programmes are so varied and
there is just a great buzz”.
