International Congress on Medical Librarianship 2026

“Flourish: Growing Our Communities”

HLG and partners are delighted to bring the 14th International Congress on Medical Librarianship to Glasgow 14-16 July 2026.

Glasgow’s official coat of arms and motto ‘Let Glasgow flourish’ is the inspiration for our vision for ICML 2026. With the conference theme ‘Flourish: Growing our Communities’, the intention is that ICML 2026 will have a growth impact upon our international community and support attendees to flourish in their roles to lay the foundations of a legacy for the profession.

We’re excited to announce that registration and call for abstracts is now open.

Building on the overall theme of the conference, we have seven sub-themes. When submitting your abstract, please ensure you clearly align to the main theme and sub-themes. Please note that you are free to interpret these and do not have to adhere to the detail given within the sub-themes which are given as general guidance. 

Early bird registration ends on 31st January 2026

The submission deadline for abstracts is 31st July 2025
