Dear members of the Information and Library Science community,
Koç University Libraries are delighted to organize their second "International Library Staff" Week in Istanbul, between 08-12 April 2019. The event brings together professional Library staff with varied backgrounds working in universities or other research orientated libraries with an interest in sharing ideas and networking with colleagues.
Suna Kıraç Library has prior experience from similar events, as it organized 3 International events in 2018 with the participation of 32 International Librarians in total and Turkish colleagues from Universities in Istanbul. On March, the Library hosted 18 International Academic Librarians from 13 countries and 5 continents in the 1st “International Library Staff” week. On June, 8 colleagues from the American Beirut University Libraries spent a week at Koç University and later on, on October, the Library hosted the “Greek and Turkish Library Staff” week.
International events offer the opportunity to share different professional and cultural backgrounds and experience in a friendly and relaxed environment and is a great start for potential joint projects.
Plus! Istanbul is a unique place to visit and Koç University stands strong in the international educational and research arena. Don’t miss the chance to be part of the experience!
