This tier is designed to support the personal professional development and career progression of library and information specialists independent of their place of work. It focuses on the individual’s growth, providing access to professional networking forums, career resources, and discounted entry to sector events and workshops. This membership ensures that professionals can remain connected to the wider library community, advocate for their profession, and stay updated on industry trends regardless of their current employment status.
This membership is for individual professionals, including retired librarians, students currently enrolled in library and information studies, and solo practitioners. It is also suitable for professionals working in organisations that do not hold an institutional membership, providing a personal pathway to engage with the sector’s community and resources.
