Keynote Speakers

With three exceptional keynote speakers, and a delegate rating of 95% Good to Excellent, Umbrella 2007 was seen as both challenging and inspirational. 

Lynne Brindley, Chief Executive of the British Library, opened the conference on a very positive note.  Delegates were then given the opportunity to experience their profession from an international perspective, with keynote presentations from both Dr Alex Byrne, President of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) 2005 - 2007 and University Librarian at the University of Technology, Sydney, Australia and Leslie Burger, President of the American Library Association (ALA) 2006 - 2007 and Director, Princeton Public Library in New Jersey, USA.

Work is already underway to source suitable keynote speakers for Umbrella 2009.  Further details will be added to the website as they become available.
