BIC is an independent organisation set up and sponsored by the Publishers Association, Booksellers Association, the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals and the British Library to promote supply chain efficiency in all sectors of the book world through e-commerce and the application of standard processes and procedures. They are committed to improving the efficiency of the trade and library supply chains, reducing cost and automating processes. We're all about "book economics" (for both print and digital).
Karina and Simon will talk about BIC, what they do, who they are, about their members, the training courses they run, standards and work for libraries, e-book for libraries, accreditation scheme etc.
This talk will be of particular value to anyone registered for CILIP Chartership and can contribute towards CPD requirements.
