Abstract

I last attended a CILIP Conference in 2016 at the Brighton Dome. Seven years later, I went to Birmingham with a sense of trepidation and curiosity. This was entirely due to my total immersion in the health sector. I work for NHS England as part of the Knowledge for Healthcare national team and was until recently a member of CILIP’s Health Libraries Group (HLG) committee. Hence my focus on health.

Since joining the UKeiG committee, I was curious to find out more about other parts of the profession. Were their challenges similar to those faced by the health library sector or were they different? Would my horizons be broadened by the presentations and networking opportunities on offer?
