History


CILIP was formed in 2002 by the merger of the Library Association (abbreviated as LA or sometimes LAUK) – founded in 1877 as a result of the first International Conference of Librarians[5] and awarded a Royal Charter in 1898[6] – and the Institute of Information Scientists, founded in 1958. Membership on unification was estimated at around 23,000.[7]Sheila Corrall was the first President of CILIP,[8] succeeded in 2003 by Margaret Watson.[9]


CILIP has its headquarters at number 7 Ridgmount Street, London;[10] the building was purpose-built in 1965 as the headquarters of the Library Association, one of CILIP's predecessors.[11]

Activities

CILIP launched a monthly journal, Information Professional (ISSN 2515-8015) in 2017, providing news, interviews, and analysis. This publication succeeded Library & Information Update (ISSN 1476-7171) which was published from 2002 to 2017 and the Library Association Record (ISSN 0024-2195) published from 1899 to 2002. CILIP publications also include Lisjobnet (a recruitment website), and Facet Publishing (professional books).


CILIP hosts an annual conference for members and non-members. Past keynote speakers include Dr Carla Hayden (Librarian of Congress in the US), Professor Luciano Floridi and Sir Nigel Shadbolt.[citation needed]


CILIP works to raise the profile of the work of librarians and information professionals through campaigns, public affairs activity, and awards and medals, as well as promoting best practice. Campaigns have included My Library By Right[12] (publicising local government's statutory obligation to provide library services), Facts Matter[13] (championing the value of quality information during the 2017 UK General Election), and the annual Libraries Week campaign[14] and Libraries Change Lives Award[15].


CILIP awards the Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals for children's books. CILIP works in partnership to award the Amnesty CILIP Honour, a special commendation which is part of the Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals. Special interest groups also make their own awards, such as the Jason Farradane Award and Tony Kent Strix Award of UKeiG.


There are over 20 special interest groups for members working with, for instance, rare books and prison libraries[16] and a similar number of 'organisations in liaison' with CILIP, such as Information for Social Change, the National Acquisitions Group, and the Society of Indexers.[17] CILIP, in its previous incarnation as the Library Association, was a founder member of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) in 1927[18].



Professional development


CILIP accredits degree courses in library and information science at universities in the UK, as well as a number of overseas programmes in China, Germany, Hong Kong, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar.[19]


There are three levels of professional registration with corresponding postnominal letters:[20][21]




  • Certified Affiliate (ACLIP), suitable for paraprofessionals without an accredited qualification[22]


  • Chartered Member (MCLIP)


  • Chartered Fellow (FCLIP)


Honorary Fellowship (HonFCLIP), akin to an honorary degree, is granted to a small number of people who have rendered distinguished service to the profession.
CILIP provides opportunities for continuing professional development and a self-assessment tool, the Professional Knowledge and Skills Base. Registered members may revalidate their registration annually.[23]


Membership of CILIP is not compulsory for practice.
