The LIRG Research Award 2010 (UK)

"Library and Information Research Group of CILIP has announced the call for the 2010 LIRG Research Award. The deadline for submissions is Friday 26 February 2010. The purpose of the Award is to encourage research and innovation in library and information science. Particular attention will be paid to proposals intended to improve the accessibility, retrievability and usefulness of information. The maximum value of the Award is GBP2000. The Award may be used to defray research expenses (e.g. travel, postage costs) to fund attendance at high level meetings or to fund a study tour. However, a clear overall aim for the research must be stated. Visits for general professional development will not be considered. The proposed research must be funded solely by the Award"
