Although the 2013 conference year is nearly over, there are still
several conferences to come this year - most especially the London
Online Conference. UKeiG would like to remind students (and lecturers
who can pass the news on!) in UK schools or departments of
librarianship, information studies, information science, knowledge
management or information management running courses accredited by CILIP
that UKeiG offers help with the costs of attending conferences. UKeiG
may not pay your full costs as we set aside only a limited amount each
year for this award - but if you want to go to a relevant conference, or
even one of CILIP's Executive Briefings, we may cover your travel costs
or your entrance fee.
It's certainly worth asking! Just send an e-mail with the subject line
'UKeiG Student Conference Awards', to [log in to unmask] detailing the
benefits to be gained from attending the conference, as well as details
of the conference, including date and place, and the costs that you
would like covered.
