[Asis-l] Travel bursary offered to attend the DREaM conference, British Library, London, 9th July 2012

[Hazel Hall]

There is still time to apply for a travel bursary to the value of £100
to attend the Developing Research Excellence and Methods (DREaM)
project’s concluding conference at the British Library, London, UK on
Monday 9th July 2012. All interested in LIS research from countries
beyond the UK – whether they be close neighbours of the UK in the
Republic of Ireland, or based at the other side of the world – are
eligible to apply for the bursary.

Expert speakers and panelists participating at the conference include
Jo Alcock, Dr Carla Basili, Dr Louise Cooke, Professor Hazel Hall,
Annie Mauger, Professor Charles Oppenheim and Professor Carol Tenopir.
Best-selling author, broadcaster, medical doctor and academic Dr Ben
Goldacre will deliver the closing keynote paper, as well as make the
presentation to the winner of the Library and Information Science
Practitioner Researcher Excellence Award. Throughout the day there
will be time for networking, and an opportunity for delegates to
contribute to a one minute madness session just before lunch. The
conference fee is just £95 (inclusive, including all refreshments).
Please see http://bit.ly/DREaM5_prog for the full programme.

The value of the award is £100 to help with travel costs to the UK.
The winner will be expected to source funding from elsewhere to cover
additional expenses such as the balance on travel, plus subsistence
and accommodation costs, as well as the £95 conference registration
fee.

The deadline for applications is Wednesday 30th May. Applications will
be judged by members of the DREaM project advisory board, and the
names of the winner announced by mid-June.

To apply for the international delegate bursary please tick the box
