Who we are

Founded in 1973 and formally launched at a conference in London in January 1976 as the Librarians’ Christian Fellowship, CLIS is an association of Christians working in libraries, information services and related fields.

We aim to:

  • provide a Christian network for the support and development of members
  • promote Christian values and to be a Christian voice within the profession
  • offer professional services to Christian organisations both in the UK and abroad
  • and above all, to make Jesus known within our profession.

Areas of work we cover

  • Libraries and Librarianship
  • Information Science
  • Information Management
  • Knowledge Management
  • Archiving and Archives
  • Museums

We are an inter-denominational group and our statement of faith is based on that of UCCF: the Christian Unions.
