The IALL scholarships program resumes this year, marking the return of in-person conferences. The program will provide financial assistance in the form of bursaries to assist law librarians in attending the IALL’s 40th Annual Course “U.S. and International Approaches to Law, Justice, and Technology: Learning from the Past and Strategies for the Future.” The course will take place in Stanford, California, USA 9-12 October 2022.
The course website is now live at http://iall.org/conf2022 and registration will open on 15 April. The local planning committee at the Robert Crown Law Library is hard at work creating an informative and exciting course. We hope the bursary program will help make attendance and participation possible for IALL members and non-members.
