World Library and Information Congress 2012

11-17 August, 2012
Helsinki, Finland

The Continuing Professional Development and Workplace Learning (CPDWL) is in the process of planning for the Helsinki conference to be held in Helsinki from 11-17 August, 2012. The selected topic for its session is: Libraries and Librarians as Forces for Transformative Change: Continuing Education the Fuel

Programme structure:

Building on the conference theme and spinning off from the five sub-topics, this conference programme will address the role of librarians in both facilitating and leading change with continuing education as the key requirement for equipping with the tools to do so.

(Note: All expenses, including registration for the conference, travel, accommodation etc., are the responsibility of the authors/presenters. No financial support can be provided by CPDWL. A special invitation for Visa purposes can be issued by IFLA Headquarters to authors/presenters if that is required. For those seeking funding through grants or scholarships, please research this early and apply
within the deadline.  Please note that some funding possibilities are generally listed on the IFLA website as well as in other places. Deadlines for these grants must be strictly adhered to).
