The IFLA Continuing Professional Development and Workplace Learning Section and the New Professionals Discussion Group invite proposals for presentations for the 'Moving In, Moving Up, and Moving On: Strategies for Regenerating the Library and Information Profession' conference
This IFLA Satellite Conference will be held in Bologna, Italy - August 18, 19, and 20, 2009. It will take place immediately prior to the World Library and Information Congress in Milan, Italy, August 2009.
The broad focus of this satellite meeting is the creation of a positive work environment for a multi-generational workforce. We are interested in this issue as it cuts across a variety of organizational structures, library types, and other workplaces that employ information workers. The conference organising committee wishes to showcase examples of best practice in strategies for regenerating the profession through both research based scholarly presentations and experiential and practical stories of successes and lessons learned.
More information on the submission process can be found at :http://www.ifla.org/IV/ifla75/satellite-cpdwl-call-en.htm
The proposal submission form will also be found there. Completed forms need to be submitted no later than 10th November 2008.
