They have also announced that
"We currently have two panel discussion session that require suitable members:
- "A panel on trade unionism in libraries: we’re looking for library workers, researchers and educators involved with trade union activity in libraries or LIS education. These can be UK or non-UK based at any level. Ideally we’d like to include representation from public, health and FE libraries. This has been arranged by CALC to reflect and discuss the current industrial action in UK HE sector.
- "A panel to explore the perspectives and experiences of neurodivergent library workers. The panel is looking for library workers at any level who self-identify as neurodivergent (with or without formal diagnosis) to discuss their experiences of working in libraries. This panel has been proposed by Maria King (@MariaOliviaKing) and seeks further panel members.
"CALC policy is that all panels must include representation from at least one Global Ethnic Majority member so we would particularly welcome contributions from GEM panelists. Panel members are not paid for their contribution but will receive free place at the conference. To put your name forward as a potential panel member please contact us on calcconference@gmail.com"
