Student Conference Grant

A grant is offered to any UK undergraduate and postgraduate student in a UK school or department of librarianship, information studies, information science, knowledge management or information management running courses accredited by CILIP. The grant is offered to enable a student to attend a UK-based conference relevant to their professional studies (e.g. The CILIP Umbrella Conference, the Online Information Meeting).

Applications are accepted throughout the year. The grant awarded may not cover all costs. UKeiG reserves the right to withhold the award. It is a condition of winning that a short ‘conference report’ is presented for publication in eLucidate.

Nominations should take the form of a letter detailing the benefits to be gained from attending the conference, as well as details of the conference, including date and place, and the costs to be incurred.
