The IALL scholarship or “bursary” program, which began in 2001, is designed to provide financial assistance in the form of bursaries to enable law librarians to attend the IALL Annual Course. IALL’s 38th Annual course is entitled “Law Down Under: Australia’s Legal Landscape and will take place in Sydney, Australia 27-30 October, 2019. Registration will open during the first week of April. The draft program is available to view at http://iall.org/conf2019/program . The course is shaping up to be exciting and informative, and we hope that the bursary program will help to make attendance and participation possible for IALL members and non-members.
