The Information Literacy Group (ILG) is a CILIP Special Interest Group that encourages debate and the exchange of knowledge in all aspects of information literacy.
The group aims to:
- provide a forum for discussion
- disseminate information about local, national and international initiatives
- encourage the publication of articles, both nationally and internationally, which share new ideas, initiatives and experience
- encourage collaboration and support across all sectors of the profession
- highlight and promote good practice
The group achieves these aims by:
- maintaining an active email list: lis-infoliteracy
- organising LILAC: the Information Literacy Conference
- publishing the Journal of Information Literacy (JIL)
- maintaining the Information Literacy website
- highlighting effective practice through the annual Information Literacy Award
- organising meetings, seminars and training events
- sharing useful resources
- sponsoring IL events
- working in partnership with other relevant organisations and agencies, for example, the Media and Information Literacy Alliance.

LILAC is great opportunity for our fellow professionals to present their ideas, share best practice and show case new thinking in our sector. If you have an idea then we'd love to hear about it. We have many options for the types of sessions you might run from a symposium to a workshop. Visit our Call for Presentations page to find out how to apply.
Places at this year's conference are likely to be in demand more than ever before. Each year our conference grows increasingly popular and this year promises to be no different. Don't miss out and book your place now for this year's conference.
We look forward to seeing you there!
