Glyndwr chartership presentation
1. Before we look at Chartership – what is
CILIP’s Framework of Qualifications?
“They are the only professional qualifications in
library and information work in the UK. . . . .
. . . . and they are recognised globally.”
2. They are only available to . . . .
Members of the Chartered Institute of Library
and Information Professionals
- there are 3 categories -
• Certification – ACLIP
• Chartership – MCLIP the Gold Standard
• Fellowship – FCLIP
3. The route to Chartership
after certified Affiliate (ACLIP) status, you may decide to progress further . . .
• You will need to be a library and/or information
worker for at least two years (full-time equivalent)
before submitting an application for Chartered
Membership.
• During this time you can register as a Chartership
candidate, but you will have to become an
Associate Member before you can submit your
Chartership portfolio (this may mean a change in your
subscription rate).
4. • You and your mentor will need to develop your
Personal Professional Development Plan (PPDP)
based on your own situation.
• Your Certification PDP can be used as the basis
of this, but you will need to review, revise and
further develop it during the period leading up
to your Chartership submission.
• Information on formal education courses and
other training activities, that will help with your
personal development, are available on the
CILIP website: www.cilip.org.uk/training
5. So, let’s review that . . .
When you apply for Chartered Membership you must be
a current Associate Member.
Complete and submit the Registration Form to
Qualifications & Professional Development, CILIP, 7
Ridgmount St. London WC1E 7AE.
Find a mentor, work with him/her and then submit your
Personal Professional Development Plan (PPDP) within
six months of registering.
Your plan will cover 1 to 2 years of professional
development - (depending upon whether you are a Pathway
1 or 2 candidate - details to follow . . . .)
6. Attend a portfolio building course arranged by your local
Career Development Group.
Put together your portfolio and write a covering statement,
with the guidance of your mentor, referring to the assessment
form used by the Chartership Board.
Once you are ready to submit your application complete the
submission form and send your portfolio to Qualifications and
Professional Development, at CILIP H.Q.
From sending in a portfolio to becoming a Chartered Member
can take between two to six months, and sometimes longer . .
7. Am I eligible? You may register to Charter if you have:
Pathway 1 . . .
• a CILIP accredited library and information degree or postgraduate qualification
Pathway 2 . . .
• ACLIP Certification and sufficient professional level experience
• an overseas library and information qualification accepted by CILIP
• a non-accredited library and information qualification assessed at Scottish
Qualifications Framework Level 10, or England, Wales and Northern Ireland
Level HE4 and above.
8. I was an extraordinary candidate!
a non-accredited degree level qualification and substantial professional
experience (known as Extraordinary Chartership Candidates)
9. Submitting the Chartership portfolio
the process – (part 1)
Agree with your mentor that the portfolio is ready to be submitted –
Call CILIP HQ for an RS form –
Send in your portfolio –
(in triplicate: 3 printed copies or 2 printed & 1 electronic) with RS form and £50 fee
Send copies of your portfolio to a pair of assessors –
(If an assessor knows the candidate he/she must return the portfolio,
which is then sent to another assessor)
Assess the portfolio individually, then discuss together -
10. Submitting the Chartership portfolio
the process – (part 2)
Registering as Chartered Member
The newly Chartered Member is added to CILIP's register and receives a
certificate produced by professional calligraphers - £20 in 2007
If they reject - the application is sent to
a second pair (they do not see the
original assessment) or the candidate is
asked for more information - or invited
to attend an interview.
If they accept - the portfolio is officially
accepted at the next available Board
Meeting. The candidate is informed by
post and invited to register as a
Chartered Member of CILIP
If the second pair rejects . . .
A decision is formally agreed at the next
Chartership Board.
Candidate is informed by post and given
feedback to support future resubmission.
If the second pair accepts (split decision)
Portfolio is seen by whole Board and discussed
at the next Board Meeting.
They may: reject, accept, or ask for more
information . . . .

Notas del editor
So now, when people ask “why bother with CILIP?”, you know what to say(!)
MCLIP – or fully chartered is known as the GOLD STANDARD!
You’ve decided to look into becoming Chartered .You’re already an Affiliated member of CILIP and regularly read the Gazette and Update. . . . . ;-) The first thing to do is change your status (and subscription) to Associate Member then register with H.Q. as a Chartership candidate and find a mentor!
Take time over this – make sure your plan is workable & realistic (although it will change as you undertake the Chartership journey).
(for example - it took me nearly a year and I was asked to submit an extra piece of written work . . . . . just a gentle warning).
If you match any of the above criteria - then yes, you are!And there’s even one more criterion – (which was introduced in 2005) for those who may not fit any of the above . . . .
Introduced especially for people just like me!
All the above information is taken from CILIP’s Chartership Timeline – which appears on their website. Simply type ‘Chartership’ into the main search bar and you will find everything you could possibly want to know about the process – including some excellent examples and presentations by others . . .
And so it continues – it can sometimes seem like a very protracted process – but just stick in there – the journey is a worthwhile one. I know for a fact that I wouldn’t be in my present job unless I was a Chartered Librarian – particularly as I haven’t got a degree in librarianship . . .
Using your own line-manager might seem like a good idea, at first. . . . But how can you honestly and impartially evaluate working practices within your own organisation without getting personal & possibly causing offence – it’s a difficult one – which is why CILIP recommend looking outside your own environs – as a ‘Health & Safety’ precaution, if you like . . .The ‘contract’ again is for your own protection and that of your mentor. Agree beforehand how many times you’d ideally like to meet up: once a month, or 4 times a year? Do either of you really want to be contacted at home in the evenings - or perhaps e-mail would be preferable? Do you expect instant responses – or do you think it’s reasonable to wait a week . . . . . etc., etc.
So why are CILIP so keen on this document?
What does it look like? Is it a complicated document?
If you haven’t had a look at the book by Margaret Watson, then I can definitely recommend it . . .
Basically, if I can do it – then so can you . . . You may be surprised to know that I didn’t begin working in a library until 10 years ago (I was a late developer!) I’ve learned a lot and come a long way since - Chartership was really worth it . . . . so good luck!
