    9th Northumbria International Conference on Performance Measurement in Libraries and Information Services


    Proving Value in Challenging Times

    22-25th August 2011

    Exhibition Centre, University of York, United Kingdom

    Announcement and Call for Papers

    The University of York is pleased to announce this latest in the successful and long standing international series of conferences on library performance measurement. In our current global context proof of the value of libraries is of critical importance, hence our chosen theme, but we are seeking as usual submissions on all aspects of the performance, measurement, assessment and evaluation of libraries and related products and services.

    We look forward to welcoming to York practitioners, researchers, educators and students interested in the performance measurement of library and information services in any context, from all countries and continents.

    The Conference will offer a thought provoking programme of invited and submitted papers, and continue its tradition of offering a lively social and visits programme, based on the rich heritage of York, Yorkshire and their associated library and museum collections.

    Details for those who wish to submit paper and other proposals to the conference are now available from the Conference Website at
