We understand that attending a conference can be overwhelming, whether you’ve been to many or you’re a conference newbie! Despite knowing you’ll get a lot out of it, it can take a real push to get you there.

At CILIPS we totally appreciate this feeling, and want to do everything we can to ensure a safe, comfortable and enjoyable experience for every single delegate. This is why we are hosting our Newbie Networking for a second year in a row! We had so much great feedback that it helped to ease delegate’s pre-conference nerves and anxieties that we want to make it a standing event!

This year’s Newbie Networking will take place on Wednesday the 29th of May from 6pm-7pm, and all delegates, new or not are welcome to attend!

At this online event, the team will talk you through getting to Dundee, the layout of the venue, the timings of the conference and more. We’ll also highlight all of the fun things you can take advantage of during the conference, including our newbie networking zone! This event also gives everyone the opportunity to meet beforehand so that you already have some friendly faces when you arrive.

We’ll talk you through the minor details to the points of interest, so there will be no surprises on the day and you know how to take full advantage of your time with us!

The Information Literacy Group recently shared a fantastic article about dealing with conference anxiety, with submissions and reflections from conference newbies, you can click here to read!

Come prepared to introduce yourself and armed with any questions the team can answer for you! Alternatively, you can contact admin@cilips.org.uk in advance if you have any questions.
