Call for expressions of interest in hosting IATUL events 2023-2024
Call for hosting IATUL Events:
The IATUL Board invites member institutions to submit expressions of interest to host the IATUL Seminars in 2023 and 2024. The seminar should be devoted to a theme of importance to the members and host by an IATUL member institution.
Recent themes have included: breaking new ground – scholarly communication in libraries (Zurich, 2022); connecting in a disconnected world (Gdańsk, 2021); sustainable crisis management in libraries (Innsbruck, 2020); open science and data management (Gdańsk, 2019); and workplace information literacy (Munich, 2018). The seminar can be conducted as an online or in-person event.
Requirements are the same as those for hosting an annual conference. Please note that financial support from IATUL for the seminar is possible this year. Board members are available to consult on any potential proposal. The IATUL office is happy to answer your questions and to send the application form to interested libraries.
Annual Conferences:
In the spring or early summer, the International Association of University Libraries (IATUL) members meet to discuss strategic and applied topics that advance both the individual and collective practices of university libraries.
Hosting an IATUL conference is a great opportunity to meet colleagues from around the world, showcase your city and your institution, and network with library directors and senior managers from over 70 countries to exchange ideas, expand professional networks, form new collaborations, and work together on multinational projects exploring the big challenges we face. We are looking for partners who would like to host the IATUL Annual conference and General assembly in 2024 and beyond.
The IATUL office is happy to answer your questions and to send the application form to interested libraries.
