The Association of International Librarians and Information Specialists
will be offering during 2010 a series of activities which the Executive
Committee hopes members will find interesting both for personal
contacts and for professional
development.
Once again AILIS is co-sponsoring the series of Library
Science Talks with the CERN Library and the Swiss National Library.
The seven talks which are foreseen for this year will take place in CERN, ITU, Bibliothèque de Genève or Bibliothèque de la Cité.
A study tour to the Municipal Library of Lyon and a visit of the Nestlé Research Center in Lausanne have been organised in the past years and several other possible tour destinations are being investigated. A
training workshop on project management took place in 2008 and a digitization workshop was organized in 2009. Suggestions
for other training events are always welcome.
As usual, we rely on our members for ideas for guest speakers at our informal lunch talks and we hope to
hold at least two or three this year so please let us know if you have any ideas.
You are welcome to contact the Executive Committee at any time to make suggestions for AILIS
activities and we hope you enjoy the programme for 2010.
You will find a complete list of activities (updated during the year) in the programme.
To promote AILIS objectives aimed at sharing information, developing
high standards of professionalism and co-operation through mutual
contacts, the Executive Committee needs your support and invites
you to join (or rejoin) the Association.
At the same time, we ask Heads of Libraries to make their
management aware of AILIS goals and to encourage their staff to
become members.
The membership fees are as follows:
Institutions:
CHF 100
Individuals:
CHF 30
Membership will entitle you to one vote at
the AILIS General Assembly; eligibility for the AILIS Executive Committee;
participation in AILIS activities, including training courses organized
by the Association (with a discount); and access to the discussion
list.
Institutional membership entitles the institution
to send one person on one training course per year.
For any queries, please contact:
