Gordon Square, Bloomsbury<\/p><\/div>\n

On Monday I attended the Library and Information Research Group’s marketing meeting at the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP) in London. The area of Bloomsbury, with which I am linked through the Russell family, my great-grand-aunt, Fanny Gallaher, author, was for many years the personal secretary to the Duchess of Bedford aka the “Flying Duchess”, looked as splendid as ever in the winter sunshine. The picture here is of Gordon Square where the ‘Bloomsbury’ group met frequently. I discovered also that poet W B Yates lived at 5 Woburn Walk – a cut-through I use regularly on my way back to Kings Cross.<\/p>\n

So what exactly does LIRG do? LIRG seeks to increase peoples awareness and understanding of research that relates to the library and information profession across all sectors by:<\/p>\n

Increasing its profile and influencing its direction;
\nPromoting the dissemination of sound research methodology and results;
\nAssisting in the development of emerging researchers;
\nEnabling networking between researchers.<\/p>\n

The activities of the Group are co-ordinated by an elected committee of researchers, research students, lecturers and practitioners in the library and information profession. More information about the group can be found through this link LIRG <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The group also publishes 3 times a year its journal LIR – Library and Information Research found here LIR<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
