UKSG offered four free places for students to attend the 2012 Conference, made possible with generous support from Elsevier, whose contribution is very much appreciated. Those eligible to apply were students enrolled on Library & Information and Publishing degree courses, and the successful applicants were (Ieft to right as photographed against the River Clyde): Stuart Lawson (University of Brighton), Jennifer Lovatt (Oxford Brookes University), Gopal Dutta (University of Sheffield) and Lydia Lantzsch (Oxford Brookes University). The four have allowed us to take a peek at the diaries they kept during the conference. The extracts below give us a flavour of the event including the plenary and breakout sessions, the debates and the stamina of those who kept the dancing going!
