UPDATE: INTERLEND 2013 - LAST CHANCE TO BOOK! BOOKING CLOSES FRIDAY 31st MAY!
The Forum for Interlending and Information Delivery (FIL) are delighted to confirm that the only UK annual conference specifically for and about the world of inter-library loans, Interlend 2013, will take place on the 27th – 28th June at the The Maldron Hotel, Cardiff. Once again this will be an essential opportunity for inter-lending staff to meet, exchange news and best practice experiences with their colleagues across the public, academic and special library sectors.
Speakers and Theme
The core conference theme for 2013 is “Interlend 101: Back to Basics”, and as always the focus will be on providing practical guidance and advice from enthusiastic and knowledgeable speakers from throughout the profession. There will also be a tour of Cardiff Public Library.
We are delighted this year to have two keynotes to start both days, Prof Charles Oppenhiem and Graham P Cornish, who are both well versed in all things copyright, but will be taking two different approaches.
The Interlend 2013 conference is now available online at http://www.forumforinterlending.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Interlend-2013-Programme.pdf
