<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Ever wondered how what you’re learning in information studies today will shape your career tomorrow?<br>
<br>
In 2026, we’re launching something new at Curtin’s Information Science Group: LARIS Talk Series: From Study to Profession.<br>
<br>
This eight-part online seminar series (monthly, one hour), led by <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/leisagibbons/">
<b>Leisa Gibbons</b></a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ellie-abdi-10338729/">
<b>Ellie Abdi</b></a> (Lead of Curtin's Information Science Group), is designed to help information studies students, alumni and prospective students visualise their future - and position themselves with confidence in the information profession.<br>
<br>
Hosted by LARIS staff and featuring diverse industry voices, the series creates space for:<br>
<br>
- Professional identity formation<br>
- Honest conversations about career realities<br>
- Emerging trends shaping libraries, archives and records<br>
- Community building across career stages<br>
<br>
We kick off in March with a session on Artificial Intelligence and the changing nature of professional practice - a timely and important conversation for anyone in our field.<br>
<br>
