@NickPoole1 @InfoProMag @LancasterUniLib Thanks Nick. The strong partnership with @LancasterBlack enabled us to think creatively about opening our doors to our communities @LancasterUniLib & developing new collections together, and has provided a model for working with other groups locally

[Veronica Price 📚💙🇪🇺 @vonprice]

Great to see your excellent advice in the latest @InfoProMag from @CILIPinfo, @Jessica_Bates Studying with you @UlsterUni certainly helped me find my dream career 😊

Our co-chair @HISchoolLibrary has written an update on our campaign in the latest issue of @CILIPinfo @InfoProMag. We also feature in the News section. AND there is a great interview with @graemeboyd about international school librarianship. #schoollibrarians @fictious_cat

[Hartland International School Libraries @HISchoolLibrary]

I have written an article for this month's @InfoProMag about the @greatschlibs campaign and our event in Westminster Hall with @MichaelRosenYes. An exciting year ahead working on raising the profile of #schoollibrarians and #schoollibraries.

Leaders are on the balcony of hope, while often staff in the basement of despair & leaders need to raise them up so they have the same vision - Masud Khokhar speaking at #CILIPconf23

[Gary Horrocks @GaryJHorrocks]

I’m cogitating themes arising from yesterday’s #CILIPConf23. A practical takeaway was to drown out all the #AI voices and noise. ‘Don’t make it bigger than it is.’ Focus on context, application, relevance to your discipline and sector. Read my @InfoProMag as well 😊 @CILIPinfo 👏

[Library Futures @library_futures]

We are so stoked for this new report from our partners and friends at @NYUEngelberg (yes, we get excited about reports), and we'll be bringing you highlights in the days to come.

[Lucie Hradecka @librarianlucie]

”People are starting to see how OA has been co-opted by publishers and poses other ethical issues. Five years ago people who opposed high APCs were only a handful of activists, that has changed.”

[InfoProMag @InfoProMag]

Does academia’s obsession with publication mean big publishers can do what they like?
Discussion sparked by @ImagingNeurosci with @rmounce, Nick Lindsay @mitpress, Claudio Aspesi, @old_light - topics likely to come up @CILIPinfo's #CILIPConf23
