CILIP (not) on Newsnight

Posted on: 11 June 2010 Last updated on: 1 July 2010 Written by: Orangeaurochs

I understand that CILIP was actually offered a chance to talk on Newsnight the other day. I’ve always been of the opinion that CILIP should make more effort to push itself into the media, to publicise and stand-up for the…

Phil Bradley on CILIP in 2020

Posted on: 20 May 2010 Last updated on: 20 May 2010 Written by: Orangeaurochs

Phil Bradley has written a long “a stream of thought” post on how he would like to see CILIP looking in ten years’ time. I’m not sure how much I agree with a lot of it, but it is interesting…

CILIP has RSS feed for job vacancies

Posted on: 2 December 2009 Last updated on: 2 February 2010 Written by: Orangeaurochs

Finally, CILIP has RSS feeds for its Lisjobnet library vacancies service! Hurrah! Although the RSS Jobs Feed page still has the title Temporary Librarian Jobs RSS Feed and text saying LIS Jobs Temps uses this technology to update you with…

Librarians go like the clappers, say experts, says the Daily Mash

Posted on: 13 May 2009 Last updated on: 13 May 2009 Written by: Orangeaurochs

According to the Daily Mash, QUIET, bespectacled female librarians really do go like a bloody train, it was confirmed last night. I expect CILIP are, as ever, behind this contribution to the image of the librarian.

Grappling with web 2.0 by holding a large formal meeting

Posted on: 29 April 2009 Last updated on: 29 April 2009 Written by: Orangeaurochs

The UK library world (at least online) today seems obsessed by the debate/session being held at CILIP today to discuss the organisation’s involvement with web 2.0, mostly centered on CILIP’s failure to engage with anything like Twitter, Facebook, open blogs…

There have been a number of recent posts debating, and in some cases criticising, CILIP and why one would join or become a chartered member: In CILIP: What is it good for?, Information Overlord asked if you’re a member, why…

CILIP advocacy

Posted on: 14 August 2007 Last updated on: 12 March 2009 Written by: Orangeaurochs

After using the word advocacy a lot (but being rather shy about it), it seems that CILIP are actually going to do some public advocacy of the library profession and support the quality of the public library service. They have…

CILIP on Second Life

Posted on: 2 August 2007 Last updated on: 12 March 2009 Written by: Orangeaurochs

After all my criticisms of CILIP not embracing new information technology, in particular RSS feeds, they went and opened an office in Second Life. Ian Snowley (IanSnowley Allen), CILIP president, explains how he gave the inaugural address at the office…
