We're looking forward to this joint Summer Networking event this Thursday. If you're a current member of the A&SL or HSLG then book your free ticket before sales end at 1pm Wednesday. It's set to be a great night with a talk by Jane Burns and an opportunity to catch up with library colleagues.
Thanks to everyone who joined us at the A&SL and HSLG Summer Networking Evening in @ria.ie yesterday. We enjoyed a talk by the inspiring Jane Burns about how librarians can use their skills to thrive across different sectors. We hope you got your murderous librarian badge!
Jean McMahon from the HSLG committee encouraged the audience to get involved with the All Island Mentoring programme as a mentor or as a mentee. She also announced the publication of the latest issue of the HSLJ journal and invited attendees to submit to the journal journals.ucc.ie/index.php/hslj
This is a great chance to reflect on the library profession, develop your writing skills and raise your professional profile - 1st, 2nd and 3rd place blog posts will be published in libfocus. See the full details at aslibraries.ie/asl-blog-pos...
