The British Library launches call for applications for the International Library Leaders Programme

The British Library will be running a week-long intensive professional development course for mid-career library and archive professionals on 18-22 July 2022. The International Library Leaders Programme offers a unique opportunity to go behind the scenes at one of the world’s largest national libraries, with workshops, talks and tours given by senior staff from across the Library’s core departments and functions.

The inaugural programme in 2019 brought together delegates from around the world for a very successful and rewarding week. The 2020 and 2021 programmes were cancelled due to the pandemic, but we are now organising the next session for July 2022.

Read more on the project webpage: https://www.bl.uk/projects/ILLP, where you can download the brochure and apply. The deadline for applications is 14 March 2022.

If you have any queries or want to find out more, get in touch with the British Library’s International Office at international@bl.uk.
