‘The dad dancing at the wedding’ and other metaphors

Published by Juliet Eve | Filed under Announcements, Research

Tuesday July 29th saw the Library and Information Group’s (LIRG) AGM and annual address, held in London. As well as the usual AGM business, including the awarding of our annual prizes - the Research Award and the student prize for best dissertation - we had a presentation from last year’s Research Award winner, Jackie Chelin (and colleagues), followed by a set of linked presentations around the theme of the ACRL’s 2007 Environmental Scan, a horizon-scanning of issues relating (in particular) to academic libraries, published in January this year. ACRL is the Association of College & Research Libraries, a Division of the American Library Association. Further details on the Scan and the afternoon sessions are available on the Researchmatters blog.
