The deadline for applications is Thursday 23rd April 2015. The Committee will meet shortly after this deadline and applicants will be advised soon afterwards about whether or not they have been granted an award.

In awarding a bursary the Committee may base its decision on a number of factors including:
•    the quality of the application
•    whether or not an applicant has received a BIALL bursary in recent years
•    if there is an expectation of future commitment and performance in the law library profession
•    proven or potential contribution to and /or participation in the Association’s activities
•    the ability to be a good ambassador for BIALL, including being prepared to participate in conference sessions and activities

We look forward to hearing from you!
