Autumn Gathering 2016

CILIPS Autumn Gathering took place on 20th October in Glasgow. Featuring keynote presentations from Marc Lambert, CEO of Scottish Book Trust and Diane Bruxvoort, University Librarian at Aberdeen University, as well as a school library stream, the event was again a sellout.

An evening reception for writers, publishers and librarians hosted by CILIPS President, Theresa Breslin followed the main event and included the launch of a new edition of the Directory of Rare Books and Special Collections in the UK and Republic of Ireland edited by Karen Attar who was present at the launch alongside CILIPS Trustee and CILIP Rare Book and Special Collections Group member, Andrew McAinsh.

You can view photographs of both events taken by Charlie Sherry, our CILIPS photographer here.

Some of the presentations from the event are available here and more will be added soon.

Thanks to everyone who attended and supported the event – members, stakeholders, exhibitors and other colleagues.
