CILIP NW Bursaries 2019



To kick start the new year we thought we’d let you know about the opportunities you will have to apply for a bursary from your CILIP North West member network this coming year. 

As usual, CILIP NW will be offering a bursary which covers the full cost of the CILIP Conference in Manchester in July. Any member of CILIP NW can apply. 

Also, for the first time this year, there will be two bursaries available for CILIP’s New Professionals Day in October. This is the annual conference aimed at library and information professionals who are in the early part of their careers. It includes a variety of workshops and presentations and a wealth of opportunities to network, find support and share information. One free place will be available to all Library and Information Management students at MMU who are CILIP members, and the other place will be available to any member of CILIP NW.

The infographic below, created by Zoe Collyer the CILIP NW Awards Officer, outlines the many benefits these bursaries provide. 






In the months running up to these events simply follow the link on the infographic to find details about how you can apply. 

We look forward to hearing from you!

CILIP Conference 2024

 Blog by Daisy Hogarth CPD is something we all want to do, but conference places are expensive, right? I’d highly recommend reaching out to CILIP NW for support through their bursary scheme. I found myself wanting to attend this year’s CILIP Conference but with no way of funding it. I work for a public library, so support via work financially was out of the question, and I didn’t have the money to fund the entire conference myself. I decided to reach out to CILIP NW and see what support I could be offered, and found the bursary application really simple and not too onerous to complete. I found out pretty quickly that I had been successful in my application to receive some money towards my ticket and the process of then obtaining my ticket with this money was really simple. Now on to the good stuff, the day! The conference was in Birmingham so I got the train from Liverpool. I used the train journey to have some uninterrupted reading time, something I don’t normally get to do on ...
