Event Cancelled

Due to lack of interest, the Professional Development opportunity, Book Talks and Digital Tools for Curation, in Whangarei tomorrow, has been cancelled.

Study Grant applications due soon

Just a reminder that the closing date for submitting study grant applications is Thursday 24th of September 2015, and successful applicants will be notified in October.   SLANZA offers study grants each year, to those working in school library teams. Study grants are available for courses offered by an approved library education provider. We believe that continuing professional development is vital - it helps you increase the knowledge and skills you need to deliver a valued service to your school community, and it can open you up to new and exciting possibilities in the field of librarianship. 
If you are thinking about undertaking Library and Information Studies next year, you may be eligible to apply for assistance. Successful applicants will receive $600 towards the cost of a paper.
More information about the grants, including the application form, is available here. Sandi FaulconbridgeProfessional Development Team Leader
