Conference will be offered separately)
Regulations
Applicants must be current members of the Academic &
Special Libraries Section of the LAI. Students and the unwaged are welcome to
apply. A&SL members who are attending conferences as speakers / presenters
/ poster presenters can also apply.
Conferences must be attended in 2016.
Bursary winners will be expected to produce a short
conference report which will appear on the A&SL website and/or in An Leabharlann. Winners may also be invited
to share their learning experiences with other A&SL members at an
appropriate A& SL event.
When claiming travel and accommodation expenses, bursary
winners must provide the A&SL Treasurer with valid receipts.
If unable to attend the conference for any reason, we would
ask the bursary winner to notify the A&SL Treasurer as soon as possible, as
conference fees may not be reimbursed without appropriate notice.
