The call for presentations for LILAC 2021 is now open! LILAC: The Information Literacy Conference will be taking place from 7-9 April 2021 at Manchester Metropolitan University. We are planning for the conference to go ahead in its usual format but are closely monitoring the current COVID situation. We are exploring an online option should things change and we will keep you informed.
LILAC welcomes proposals which address information literacy from all sectors and contexts. In 2021, we invite you to present on any aspect of information literacy; there are no specific themes. We ask that your presentation makes explicit reference to your innovative practice or research in information literacy.
LILAC is committed to encouraging diversity at the conference and we would specifically like to encourage proposals from members of the BAME community and other under-represented communities and sectors.
There are a number of different types of presentation you can submit, including micro-teach, workshop, masterclass and short/ long presentation. More information about all the presentation types can be found on the LILAC website.
Key dates:
- Call for presentations opens: 10 October 2020
- Call for presentations deadline: 12 November 2020 (17:00 GMT)

You will need to register for an account to submit a proposal, if you already have an account, then you just need to login and go to ‘my account’, where you’ll see details of how to submit.

We look forward to receiving your submissions!
