IIS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT EVENTS
The IIS Professional Development Events (formerly known as the Evening
Events) are workshops and lectures set up specifically to help information
specialists pursue their professional development interests, without having
to take time away from their jobs during working hours. They feature a
variety of topics at a variety of levels. These may appeal to anyone
wishing for an introduction to something new, or to the less experienced
members of the information profession.

Normally no more than 15 people can register for each event, so there will
be plenty of opportunity to participate in the discussion or ask questions.

FUTURE EVENTS
If  you  have any topics that you would particularly like to see covered in
events of this nature, or want any subjects repeated in a town or city near
you, please let us know.
