HLG Conference Part 2

The Conference is only a month away.  We are looking forward to welcoming library and information professionals from across the UK to the beautiful city of Cardiff.  The HLG Conference committee has done a wonderful job in drawing together an interesting and diverse group of speakers.  Wales will be well represented, from the Tuesday Keynote Speaker being Tony Jewel, CMO for Wales, to speakers and poster presenters from librarians and researchers across Wales.

HLG Wales is hosting a Pre-Conference Dinner on the Sunday.  This has proved very popular and is now “sold-out”.  If you were not able to get into the dinner, I am sure you will see the group wandering around the Mermaid Quay cafe and bar area after dinner!  If the weather is nice, this is a lovely place to gather on a summer’s evening.

HLG Conference

The HLG Conference isn’t too far away.  Thank goodness it is in Cardiff!  It will be good to show off Wales (let’s all pray for sunshine!).  If you haven’t registered yet, you still can at http://www.cilip.org.uk/groups/hlg/conf2008/registration.html . 

If you are coming to stay on the Sunday night before the conference, HLG Wales will be hosting a dinner at Bayside Brasserie at Cardiff Bay.  If you would like to come to the dinner, please e-mail Lori Havard at l.d.havard@swan.ac.uk to make your reservation.  Menus will come out to you a few weeks before for pre-ordering.  We have a limit of 35, so get your reservations in quickly!
