About SALIN

The South Australian Library and Information Network is dedicated to serving the professional development of new and not-so-new library and information workers.

Membership is inclusive and free, comprising library technicians, librarians, students, new graduates and other information professionals such as archivists and record managers. Interested? Why not join SALIN today!

SALIN provides an opportunity for social and professional networking through regular social nights, seminars and workshops.
