The HSLG will hold our annual conference in the Ashling Hotel, Dublin on Thursday 7th March 2024.
Our theme for 2024 will be “Who’s afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?”. There’s always something that can potentially disrupt our professional work (remember search engines were meant to herald our doom?). We’ve managed to survive, and often thrive, in the face of adversity, but can produce a better response when we work together and plan ahead.
- What can we do to prepare for the future?
- What issues should we be talking about?
- Are potentially scary issues challenges or opportunities?
- How can we produce a strong, structured approach to practice that will withstand potential assaults?
Sharing our ideas and innovations are one way to become stronger, so we’d also like to hear about any subject that interests you. We would like to invite you to submit an abstract for a presentation on our theme or sub-themes. Subthemes include:
- artificial intelligence
- environmental issues
- library community support
- CPD
- workforce challenges
- censorship
Presentations will be 20 minutes. You can submit your abstract to contacthslg@gmail.com by Friday 19th January 2024. Please include a presentation title, name of presenter(s), organization, and abstract of 300 – 500 words.
