19 Mar 2025
Together25, The University of Manchester Library Annual Conference, Tuesday, 24 June 2025, 9-5pm, The John Rylands Library

Thank you for signing up via Eventbrite to attend this year’s conference. If you still need to book your place, you have until 5pm on Tuesday, 1 April 2025.
The Together25 Planning Team are now ready to receive your proposals to present your work at the conference, as well as your nominations for this year’s Rylands awards.
Submit a proposal to present your work at the conference
The programme for this year’s conference will be crafted to work within the spaces we have available at Rylands. In addition to presentations and breakout sessions there will be opportunities to take guided tours of the building and explore the new exhibitions.
We’d love to hear from you if you have an idea for a:
- Focus on… presentation (10 minutes)
- Breakout session (60 minutes)
- Digital presentation
This year we will share digital presentations in the weeks leading up to the conference. We’re not having our usual poster display but if you already had plans to create a poster, we can work with you on how to turn it into a digital presentation.
The deadline for proposals is 5pm, Wednesday, 9 April 2025 and we will be in touch by the end of April to confirm your contribution.
Nominate a colleague or Library Team for an award
‘The Rylands’ return this year so we can once again recognise the exceptional levels of service and innovation at the Library.
The deadline for nominations is 5pm, Wednesday, 9 April 2025.
Questions?
If you have any questions or want to talk through your proposal, please get in touch with Michelle or Ria.
