Subscription fee for FIL membership is to be removed at the end of 2023

Many thanks to everyone for attending the recent meeting regarding the future of FIL and the proposed changes. We are happy to let you know that the vote was in favour of removing the subscription fee.

We are currently planning the next FIL event – scheduled for 7th February- and as part of the event will be holding a discussion around the future of FIL and future events.

Your chance to have a say

We are proposing to remove the charge for FIL membership. This change will require a vote from current members.

We have a meeting on 8 November to discuss this proposal which you will have received an email invite to and people can vote during the meeting but we wanted to provide the opportunity to those who do not attend to have their say.

Access the Poll: Click Here

This poll will remain available until noon on Wednesday 15 November.

Full details of the proposal are available below.

Proposal to vote upon

We are proposing to remove the charge for FIL membership. This change will require a vote from current members.

Background

· Membership payments are becoming more complex to process with some institutions requiring information such as VAT numbers and statements on slavery
· Membership numbers are low
· Fee for accountant to manage membership income is high in ratio to credit collected from membership fee
· Training budgets across the sector are tight, many are not able to attend face-to-face events due to conference fees and associated travel costs

Maintaining subscription charge outcomes

· Annual membership- £75 (institutional), £50 (personal) or £30 (retired/unwaged)
· Keeping the subscription charge may facilitate the continuation of in-person events
· Problems in obtaining membership charges need to be overcome
· Committee members needed to organise events

Dropping subscription charge outcomes

· Membership would be open to all to encourage more diversity among member libraries within and beyond the UK
· May encourage more members and attract more interest in committee membership
· Events would move online- cheaper to run and attend
· No accountant needed to manage subscription fees
