The HSLG committee are delighted to announce that registration is now open for the Annual HSLG Conference which takes place on Thursday 6th March in the Ashling Hotel, Dublin.
Our theme for 2025 is “Cultivating curiosity: a wonderland for librarians”.
Our theme explores the role of curiosity within librarianship, which includes:
- Innovating, challenging and being open to new ideas, experiences and perspectives
- Planning for the future / creating or adapting to environments of change
- Delving deep. Understanding and providing evidence of value
- Lifelong learning
- Believing impossible things – and making them happen
The programme is packed with interesting and relevant speakers, with plenty of time to network. Highlights include keynote speaker Sue Lacey Bryant, CILIP President, and a knowledge café led by Mairéad McKeown and Amy Bond of Bord Bia.
The HSLG makes the Bernard Barrett Bursary award available to HSLG members from across Ireland to enable members to attend the annual conference. Members may apply for funds to cover the registration fee and/or travel expenses: https://hslg.ie/about/hslg-bursary/
