Yes indeed. My experience in leading the BAILER Heads of LIS Schools Committee in responding to consultations from a variety of bodies strongly suggests that if CILIP is more pro-active in responding to consultations, even if it has not been specifically invited, it will soon find that it is on the mailing list for invitations to do so! -----Original Message----- From: Chartered Library and Information Professionals [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of JACKIE FISHLEIGH Sent: 02 February 2004 10:29 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Select Committee Inquiry into Scientific Publications - CILIP Submission I have not really been following this issue but was myself thinking - do we have to wait to be asked? We represent around 25,000 information workers, so our voice should be heard. Perhaps we should have a watching brief on areas that relate to our field. If we don't already that is!

But I'm glad CILIP is on the case now.
