Libraries Change Lives Award ceremony moves to Umbrella 2009
CILIP’s prestigious Libraries Change Lives Award ceremony will now take place at Umbrella 2009 in the Plenary Session on 15 July 2009 rather than at Incisive Media’s Library & Information Show (LIS). This follows the company’s decision to move LIS 2009 from early April to a new time of mid-June, which places LIS just prior to Umbrella.2009. CILIP has also withdrawn from exhibiting at LIS 2009.
Managing Director of CILIP Enterprises’ John Woolley says: “It is disappointing that Incisive Media has moved the LIS show from April. However, we are looking forward to an exciting and vibrant Umbrella on 14-15 July 2009. With more than 65% of exhibition stands sold and the addition of the Libraries Change Lives Award ceremony to the programme, I am confident that, once again, the event will be a great success”.
Linda Constable, Chair of the Award Judges, comments: “I am delighted the Libraries Change Lives Award ceremony will be held at Umbrella 2009. It offers a larger audience to showcase the innovation, dedication and impact on communities that the Award promotes.”
