It is our pleasure to invite you to present at a two-day symposium, 4-5 February 2021 at the National Library in Wellington, organised by LIANZA’s Research (RES) and Tertiary Libraries (TEL) special interest groups.
As most of our professional decisions are underpinned by evidence gathered through some form of research, this symposium will be of strong interest to information workers across all sectors, tertiary, school, special, government, health, public and more. It will also provide the opportunity to rekindle connections with colleagues and friends across the library and information sector.s
New graduates, early career and more experienced professionals are all welcome.
Although we encourage attendance in person, we offer online presentation if necessary. Of course, should alert levels change we will make arrangements to move the symposium online.
