Celebrating our 10th birthday this year, Internet Librarian International 2008 takes place at Novotel London West, London, UK on 16 &17 October 2008

Technological change and development over the past decade has been breathtaking, but the challenge remains the same: to understand the impact on – and benefits to - your library or information centre.

Internet Librarian International always meets that challenge head on.

A TASTE OF WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

Internet Librarian International provides vital insight and knowledge to help you excel at your job. Here’s a sneak preview of just a few of our new and enhanced topics for 2008:

  • Library 2.0 and Web 2.0: learn how these technologies work in reality - and not just theory - and how they affect your library

  • Search analytics: without measurement, do you know how effective your projects are and whether you’re reaching the right audience?

  • Information search and discovery: the search world continues to evolve - get a grip on what these changes mean to you and your organisation

  • Transparency: much of 2.0 revolves around collaboration and transparency, so why are some institutions more prone to adopting transparency than others?

  • Web design: moving beyond the accepted principles of usability, learn how web design continues to evolve

5 IMPORTANT REASONS TO ATTEND:

  • LEARN how to evaluate and implement technologies and techniques to directly benefit your organisation

  • HEAR from some of the world’s most experienced and influential practitioners and developers

  • NETWORK with information colleagues from around the world and learn from their experiences - both good and bad

  • SHARE knowledge, tips, tricks and resources for keeping up to speed in today’s constantly-evolving information arena

  • TAKE HOME practical and proven how-to advice that you can put to work right away in your own information environment
