Dear BAILER colleagues

This is to let you know that are still some places available for the free event on the theme of LIS research impact and value<https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rival-research-impact-value-and-lis-lis-rival-registration-45585730146> to held in Edinburgh on Wednesday 11th July 2018, and invite you to register/pass the details on others who may be interested in joining us for the day.

Entitled Research Impact Value and LIS (RIVAL), this event will bring together members of three main groups – creators, users, and end-user beneficiaries of LIS research output – to explore concepts and examples of the impact and value of LIS research to services delivery in practice. The format of the day will encourage the strengthening of links between these interacting communities, narrow gaps between LIS research and practice, and lay the ground for future research-related support and collaborations across the sector.

Speakers include:

  *   Leo Appleton, Goldsmiths, University of London
  *   Professor Alison Brettle, Salford University
  *   Dr Paul Gooding, University of East Anglia
  *   Professor Hazel Hall, Edinburgh Napier University
  *   Andrew McTaggart, Edinburgh City Libraries and Information Services
  *   Yvonne Morris, CILIP
  *   Sara Wingate Gray, University College London
  *   Stella Wisdom, British Library

We would be particularly keen to add more LIS PhD students and early career researchers to the delegate list, so please could you highlight this opportunity to those in your department? Registrations can be made (free of charge) at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rival-research-impact-value-and-lis-lis-rival-registration-45585730146

Many thanks

Hazel
