Seminars & Workshops
Annual Seminars
Each year since 1997 the Consortium has organised a seminar with invited speakers addressing subjects relating to the Consortium’s objectives to precede the formal AGM. Most of these Seminars have been published in the series of CERL Papers.
CERL also organises training workshops for its members and participates in conferences in the academic and library worlds.
