Guest post by LAI CDG Group

Are you a library or information professional looking to connect with others, build your network, and help shape professional development opportunities in our field? The Career Development Group (CDG) is welcoming new members this December, and we would love to have you on board. 

The CDG is a friendly and welcoming committee made up of enthusiastic professionals from across the LIS sector. Committee members from all over Ireland meet once a month via Zoom to plan activities, share ideas, and collaborate on initiatives that support career growth and community building. 

By joining the CDG, you will have the opportunity to: 

• Network with colleagues from a variety of roles and backgrounds. 
• Co-organise relevant events and workshops that benefit the wider LIS community. 
• Gain experience in committee work in a supportive, low-pressure environment. 
• Contribute your voice and ideas to our ongoing projects and planning. 

Whether you are early in your career, an MLIS student, or a tenured LIS professional looking to get more involved, CDG is a great place to connect, learn and grow, while having fun doing it! 
Interested in joining? Please fill in our New Members Form and attend our online AGM on December 9th when we form our committee. There are three officer positions: Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer. There are also roles in our Communications team which supports the CDG’s outreach and promotions.

 
We look forward to hearing from you. 

Your voice matters. No prior experience required, just enthusiasm.
