    For prospective members, this will be an opportunity to learn more about the activities and resources of the IS, which includes the administration of the PRIMO and Framework Sandbox websites and the development and promotion of instructional resources such as the Information Literacy in the Disciplines guides. You will also get information on the benefits of involvement and how you can get started with IS. More experienced members will have a chance to hear about additional opportunities for engaging with IS and also to share how IS has benefitted them.
