Information Sharing Forums

ALIA / AGLIN Information Sharing Forums are a great way to learn about new initiatives in other libraries, share knowledge, and maintain your professional development. The forums are organised jointly by ALIA and AGLIN (the Australian Government Libraries Information Network) and usually held at the National Library. ISFs are presented on a diverse range of topics, and are an excellent opportunity to meet and network with a wide range of people in the ACT library & information sector. Everyone is welcome.

The next forum promises to be a highly interesting session, with Shirley Oakley, the Executive Director of Library Services at Charles Sturt University giving a talk on 'Meeting the needs of the 21st Century learner: the learning commons concept at Charles Sturt University'. This forum will be held 4.30pm, Wednesday 28th May, at the National Library Conference Room. For further information check the AGLIN Events & Training page.
