Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31[st] December 2021

The trustees present their report along with the consolidated financial statements of the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP) for the Financial Year ended 31[st] December 2021. The accounts are those of CILIP and its 100% owned subsidiary CILIP Pathways. The financial statements have been prepared based on the accounting policies set out in note one to the financial statements and comply with the organisation’s Royal Charter. CILIP is a charity operating under Royal Charter registered with the Charity Commission (Reg. No 313014).

1. Objectives and activities

Strategic objective

As a Chartered Institute, CILIP operates under Royal Charter which sets the following objective:

“The objects of the Institute shall be to work for the benefit of the public to promote education and knowledge through the establishment and development of libraries and information services and to advance information science (being the science and practice of the collection, collation, evaluation and organised dissemination of information).”

We deliver this objective through the mission and activities set out in our 5-year Strategic Plan. The previous plan, Securing the Future, was completed in 2020 and by Agreement with the Board of Trustees a new strategy is currently under development to cover the period 2022-26.

CILIP's purpose is to support, unite and advocate for everyone working in information, knowledge and libraries. Our vision is of a professional community that is dedicated to changing lives through access to quality information, knowledge and data.

As a charitable organisation, our work is strongly guided by our values, which include a commitment to:

Activities

Our mission is to be the leading professional association for people working in information, knowledge and libraries. We will achieve this mission by focusing on 5 key priorities:

2 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

In setting our strategic priorities and developing our annual programme, we have due regard both to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and the improvement of education and knowledge for public benefit. The trustees review CILIP’s annual delivery plans and budgets to ensure that all activities are in line with the charity’s objects and goals.

Four nations, regional devolution and international

CILIP is a UK-based organisation with a global reach. Through our international programmes, we support intercultural dialogue, cultural diplomacy and knowledge exchange with librarians, information and knowledge professionals worldwide.

We recognise the unique and distinct context of each of the four Nations that comprise the United Kingdom. Where possible, we develop programmes with a UK-wide remit, and work with our representative partners and members in all four Nations to tailor our activities and priorities to their national context.

To this end, in addition to the leadership of CILIP as the main UK-wide body, we also work in Scotland in partnership with CILIP in Scotland, an independent charity registered in Scotland. In Wales, our work is led by CILIP Cymru Wales, a National Committee of CILIP. In Ireland, our work is led by CILIP Ireland, a National Committee of CILIP.

We have considered the current context of increased devolution in national policy and are satisfied that these governance arrangements provided an approach that is responsive to changing circumstances while supporting the overall delivery of our charitable purpose.

Wider context

This report is provided in the context of a global pandemic that transformed the lives of millions of people worldwide. Throughout the pandemic, CILIP has remained open and has continued to focus on supporting our members as they support the users and communities that depend on them.

In the early days of the pandemic, CILIP set out a ‘COVID 19 Response Plan’ which enabled us to continue to meet our obligations throughout this period of disruption while continuing to deliver the benefits our members expect. This plan included:

3 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

We are particularly grateful to our community of Member Networks and our colleagues in CILIP in Scotland, CILIP Wales and CILIP Ireland, without whose support it is unlikely that we could have maintained our operations on behalf of our members.

The challenges of the pandemic will be with us for many years to come. Entire societies have seen ‘digital’ access taking equal place alongside physical experiences. The impact on learners of all ages, and particularly schoolchildren and students, has been profound.

We have set out an ambitious programme for the future, helping to ensure that our profession is able to play its part at the centre of our national recovery.

How we deliver public benefit

CILIP is a charity operating under Royal Charter. Our purpose is to support, unite and advocate for everyone working in information, knowledge and libraries. Our vision is of a professional community that is dedicated to changing lives through access to quality information, knowledge and data.

We maintain a ‘theory of change’ which articulates how our work generates public benefit, both directly and indirectly. Our aim is to generate social, cultural, educational, economic, scientific and personal benefit for everyone by actively promoting an equal and inclusive information society and a competitive knowledge economy.

We have seen first-hand during the pandemic the vital role that reading, literacy, digital skills and access to information play in the lives of every citizen. Our role is to support the library and information professional workforce who deliver this benefit for everyone, regardless of their means.

2. What we did: activities, achievements and impact

The table below summaries how we delivered against our priorities and objectives in 2021.

Outcome

Activity

As part of our ‘digital pivot’ the CILIP team moved our busy programme of events, training and conferences online, including a highly successful 2[nd] annual CILIP Conference, delivered through the Pheedloop platform.

We have been able to deliver a very popular programme of webinars covering a wide range of subjects as well as specialist online training support in partnership with our Member Networks.

CILIP has continued to provide support for international standards throughout 2021, including specifically our role in the international leadership and development of the RDA standard.

CILIP has provided ongoing support for LIS teaching and learning in the UK and internationally through our Accreditation programme, while also beginning to diversify our role as an accrediting body in related sectors including Archival and Museum Studies, Records, Information and Data Management.

Impact

Professional development, training and CPD support is a key part of the value proposition for members and the wider community. As a result of our move online, we have seen significant increases in participation and engagement with our training events and activities.

The shift online has also helped us to begin to address the environmental impact of physical events and training. As we look ahead to postpandemic recovery, it will be important to consolidate these gains in terms of participation and ease-ofaccess to our support programme.

There has been significantly increased engagement with and take-up of the RDA standard during this reporting period. We are actively engaged with the RDA community to implement a longer-term programme of development support.

Accreditation provides a vital mechanism to deliver on our vision for the future development of the professional workforce. By expanding into ‘Short Course Accreditation’ we are able to engage new and existing learning providers with a more flexible model that reflects the changing ways in which people undertake professional development.

11 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

International development

CILIP has led the ACE-funded Working Internationally programme, providing grant funding support to 4 public library authorities to develop collaborative programmes with their counterparts overseas.

Working Internationally has highlighted a significant appetite among UK libraries in all sectors for international working. The programme has provided an opportunity to showcase the positive benefits of international collaboration for innovation and knowledge exchange.

CILIP and the Working Internationally Project Board were able to secure investment from the Arts Council England to fund a Feasibility Study for Phase 2 of this work.

Advocacy

Outcome

Championing Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

Activity

Through our Changing Lives programme, CILIP has made a lasting commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion across every aspect of our work, leadership and governance.

Impact

Changing Lives has already delivered significant impact in terms of equality, diversity and inclusion in our work, helping us both to present a more representative voice for our professional community and to begin to tackle systems which prevent people from marginalised communities entering and progressing in our profession.

It is clear that this is the beginning of a long-term process for CILIP and for our profession, but Changing Lives represents an unequivocal statement of intent allied to practical action.

Outcome

Building political influence

Outcome

Activity

As the only independent association representing librarians, information and knowledge management professionals in all sectors, CILIP maintains an active programme of political relations in Westminster and the Devolved administrations.

During 2021, we supported the re-registration of the Libraries APPG as the ‘AllParty Parliamentary Group for Libraries, Information and Knowledge’, with an extended remit covering the wider range of information and knowledge sectors.

We have also been able to reflect the priorities and capabilities of our professional community in key Government consultations..

We have continued to build the evidence base in support of our advocacy of librarians, information and knowledge management professionals in all sectors.

Activity

CILIP has maintained a proactive approach to public and media relations, providing commentary and quotes for national, local and trade press and media outlets throughout 2021.

Impact

Our political engagement is helping both to ensure that key decisions impacting on our professional community are based on insight, evidence and understanding and that our potential contribution is reflected in wider policy documents.

The new APPG LInK has provided an invaluable platform for political engagement, developing relationships and positioning CILIP as a source of trusted and authoritative evidence and advice relating to libraries and information management.

We have seen real progress in expanding the scope of our political dialogue to encompass a broader understanding of the scale, composition and impact of our profession beyond public libraries.

We have continued to seek ways to develop a robust evidence-base for advocacy and sector development, and will continue to do so in the coming year.

Impact

As a result of our active engagement with media outlets, we were able to help ‘tell the story’ of the tremendous support provided by librarians and information professionals to their users, organisations or communities during the pandemic.

13 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

In the process, we have been able to present a more positive and proactive voice for libraries in all sectors, and to start to be more effective in securing recognition of the scope and size of the sector beyond public libraries.

CILIP has provided national representation for our professional community through participation in Working Groups, advisory councils and other strategic platforms, including the English Public Libraries Strategic Working Group, chaired by the Arts Council England.

These activities have delivered positive impact in promoting CILIP’s vision of the central role of professional skills – the skills and know-how of our members – to the wider strategic leadership of the library and information sectors.

Outcome

Activity

Impact

Promoting public engagement Despite the disruptions of COVID-19, CILIP delivered a highly successful Libraries Week 2021 campaign in the first week of October (coinciding with key moments in the political calendar, including budget-setting within Local Authorities).

Libraries Week has continued to grow and develop as a key opportunity for public engagement during the year. The theme of ‘BActive and Engaged Communities’ was timely in light of the new sense of civic participation emerging from the pandemic.

The campaign focused on the theme of ‘Active and Engaged Communities’ and attracted widespread participation across most parts of the library and information sector, delivering significant public engagement and visibility.

CILIP has continued to work with specialist agency Agile Ideas throughout the year to promote the Carnegie Greenaway Awards as an attractive prospect for new sponsorship and investment.

The new review into the longer-term financial and delivery model for the awards will help to ensure their longer-term sustainability.

CILIP continued to publish Pen & Inc., the diversity magazine and listings guide throughout 2021.

Future plans

As noted in the previous Annual Report, 2020 represented the final year of the previous 5-year plan Securing the Future. With the agreement of the Board and in light of the ongoing disruption of COVID-19, the Board agreed to ‘roll forward’ for one year, with the new strategic plan, We Are CILIP, coming into place in January 2022.

We Are CILIP sets out an ambitious vision for a new, more inclusive and impactful role for our professional body. It will focus on four key strategic contexts that are shaping the work of librarians, information and knowledge professionals: Digital Transformation, Equity and Social Justice, Environmental Sustainability and Leadership.

At the same time, one of the primary legacies of the pandemic is that the Board has decided to relocate away from CILIP’s existing premises at 7 Ridgmount Street, and in the process to address the long-standing issues with our former Defined Benefit Pension Scheme (closed in 2011).

The Senior Leadership Team has begun the process of preparing the premises for sale, and of developing a plan with the Pension Trustees that will leave CILIP debt-free and with a significant long-term endowment to secure our future sustainability.

Activities in the devolved nations

We aspire to combine a UK-wide perspective and common goals with effective and equal representation across Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and England.

17 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

CILIP Cymru Wales

During 2021 CILIP Cymru Wales comprised a National Committee for Wales supported by a CILIP Development Manager. CILIP Cymru Wales is active in ensuring that the needs of CILIP members in Wales are addressed and that their priorities are fed into our overall programmes. Key achievements included:

CILIP Ireland

CILIP Ireland comprises a National Committee based in Northern Ireland supported by a CILIP Development Manager. CILIP Ireland is responsible for ensuring that the needs of CILIP members in Ireland are addressed and that their priorities are fed into our overall programmes. Key achievements for 2021 included:

During 2021, the CILIP Ireland Committee has developed a strategic plan which identifies key priorities, connected to the five strategic goals and priorities set out in the CILIP Action Plan.

CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS)

CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS) is an independent organisation registered as a charity with OSCR, the Scottish Charity Regulator. Each year, CILIPS sets out its own business plan which is aligned to the priorities and goals set out in the CILIP action plan.

CILIPS is supported through an annual grant, agreed with CILIP, which includes the cost of staffing and delivery of activities to the benefit of CILIP members in Scotland.

The joint CILIP/CILIPS Service Level Agreement (SLA) agreed in 2018 has provided a strong foundation for mutual dialogue and collaboration throughout 2021. As a result, we have agreed to translate the SLA from a ‘rolling annual’ agreement to a permanent standing one, representing the trust and respect between our organisations and our mutual interest in meeting the needs of our members. At the same time, the ‘SLA’ was replaced by a more equitable ‘Partnership Agreement’, which will now form the basis of our ongoing collaboration.

Monitoring and evaluation

At the request of the CILIP Board, the Senior Management Team has developed a performance management framework based on an agreed set of Key Performance Indicators which supports

18 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

ongoing decision-making, evaluation and future planning. The performance management report focuses on:

We will review the effectiveness of these KPI during the course of the year.

External factors affecting our work

We undertake a periodic ‘foresight’ exercise in order to identify the main trends and external factors, which will affect our work. The key trends we have identified in 2021, which will inform our future work, include:

Fundraising

The majority of CILIP’s income comes from its members and it undertakes very little direct fundraising activity involving individual donors. CILIP did not receive any complaints in relation to

19 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

fundraising in 2021 and 2020. Due to the nature of CILIP, CILIP is not registered with the fundraising regulator.

3. Future plans

2020 marked the final year of Securing the Future, our 5-year strategy (2016-20). In many ways, we were able to celebrate the successful delivery of a vision of CILIP as a more impactful, more visible and more relevant membership association for people working in libraries, information and knowledge.

At the same time, this has been a challenging period – with Government cuts resulting in widespread job losses and service reductions and ongoing pressure on libraries and information services to evidence their value and impact.

By agreement with the Board, we rolled forward an interim strategy in 2021, in anticipation of the publication of our new 5-year strategy and action plan, We Are CILIP in 2022.

In terms of our operations and sustainability, the key impact of the pandemic was to accelerate the process of resolving the long-standing pressure of our Defined Benefit Pension Scheme. In 2021, CILIP was able to negotiate a Framework Agreement with the new Pension Trustees which will see us selling the premises at 7 Ridgmount Street, and using the sale proceeds partly to close the significant deficit on the scheme and partly to secure CILIP’s ongoing viability.

4. Financial review

The financial statements were in the format required under the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP FRS 102) and the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) reflects the strategic priorities of CILIP.

Overview of 2021 financial position and performance for CILIP and CILIP Pathways Ltd

During the pandemic lock down years 2020 to 2021 CILIP carried out a number of actions to ensure its short and medium term financial sustainability. These actions included:

20 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Taking the above proactive actions enables CILIP’s overall income to increase from £3,946,319 in 2020 to £4,091,535 in 2021. This 1% increase in overall income was mainly due to the part recovery of training, events, conferences, publications, professional services (although not up to the pre-pandemic level) CILIP Pathways Ltd and Government recovery fund grants. Pandemic did have significant impact on the following CILIP’s activities;

CILIP implemented restrictions on non-committed expenditure to manage outgoings thereby increasing our costs by 1% from £3,898,947 in 2020 to £3,907,107 in 2021.

CILIP Pathways limited commenced trading in March 2020, incurring mainly start-up costs of £27,754. In 2021 Pathways made a profit of £22,002 thereby carrying forward a loss of £5,752 after offsetting 2020 losses against 2021 profit. There is also a time lag between opening apprentices and receiving income from successful apprentices. Income from successful apprentices is expected to gradually increase from now onwards.

Future financial outlook for CILIP and CILP Pathways Ltd

2020 represents the final year of CILIP’s current 5-year strategy ‘Securing the Future’, we developed our longer term action based on an assumption of continued disruption in 2021 and 2022 due to the impact of COVID-19. In addition, we are developing longer-term plans particularly through the Strategy Finance review that completed in July 2021. The recommendations from the strategic review informed our new 5-year plan (2022-26) undertaken in consultation with our membership and the wider profession.

In 2021, we have begun work on creating a ‘We are CILIP’ programme to ensure our future sustainability. This programme of work includes:

CILIP Pathways Ltd: During the period ended 31 December 2021, CILIP Pathways Limited made a profit. CILIP Pathways limited forecast to make a modest profit in 2022 with an increase in profits year on year projected. The directors are confident that CILIP Pathways is establishing itself well and forecasts that growth in 2022 and beyond will be achieved.

Total group’s reserves in 2021 were £23,934,728 (2020: £16,781,414) which consists of unrestricted funds £21,336,855 (2020: £14,019,442), designated funds £1,811,415 (2020: £1,812,273) and restricted funds £786,458 (2020: £949,699). Further details about the funds are as stated below:

Unrestricted funds

Unrestricted funds consist of CILIP’s (i) central operations activities, (ii) Member Networks activities, (iii) designated funds activities, (iv) pension reserve and (v) revaluation reserve.

(i) CILIP’s central operations activities

CILIP’s Central operational activities during the year had a net income of £464,591 (net expenditure of £213,649 in 2020). In 2021, central operations had a surplus of £416,340 due to the recovery of our operational activities coupled with the gain of £48,251 on our investment assets due to the recovery of the UK stock market from the impact of the pandemic.

The total reserve carried forward in 2021 for central office activities was £958,817 in 2020 it was £168,786 as per note 19.

(ii) Member Networks activities

Our Member Networks continue to provide a range of high quality events, conferences and training opportunities at a fee that our members can afford to ensure their professional development thereby having a positive movement of £14,379 in 2021 but this was negative movement of £22,469 in 2020 due to cancellation of events because of the pandemic.

The total reserve carried forward to 2021 for Member Network activities was £693,294 (2020:£678,915) as per note 19.

(iii) Designated funds activities

Designated funds consist of the fixed asset reserve and development fund reserve.

The movement on the designated fund fixed asset reserve as per note 17 was due to the acquisition in 2021 of £2,556 (2020: £18,200) worth of computer assets and the depreciation charge for the year of £56,046 (2020: £70,465). The total fixed asset reserve carried forward to 2021 was £1,659,045 (2020: £1,712,535) and this did not include the revaluation reserve on buildings.

(iv) Pension reserves

The trustees believe that the defined benefit pension scheme funding calculation, which can vary considerably according to the assumptions made at each year-end, has no material effect on the charity’s cash flows in the short term, and that in the longer term its effects are sustainable out of future income. For this reason, in the trustees’ view, it is disregarded for reserves policy purposes. The movement on the pension reserve of £2,117,000 in 2021 (2020: £1,281,000) as per note 22 was mainly due to an increment in the present value of the defined benefit obligations. In 2021 the pension scheme deficit was £4,934,000 in 2020 this was £7,051,000.

(v) Revaluation reserve

CILIP fully owns the central office building as a primary asset of the charity which generates revenues (rental of office and meeting space) which are driven back to support our charitable objects. The freehold property revaluation takes place every two years. The market value as at 31December 2021 was £26,250,000 (as per note 9) in 2020 it was valued at £21,876,000.

Restricted funds activities

Restricted funds are those used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donors or raised by the charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds, where applicable, charged against the specific fund. The movement on the restricted fund is analysed in note 16.

Subsidiaries

In 2021, the two dormant subsidiaries were dissolved. CILIP now has only one subsidiary. In 2020 it was three subsidiaries of which two are dormant.

CILIP Pathways Limited incorporated on 4[th] March 2020 as a trading subsidiary of the parent charity, CILIP. CILIP Pathways Ltd was set up to conduct assessment of apprenticeships. CILIP’s customers are the employers of apprentices, the apprentices and apprenticeship-training providers. CILIP Pathway Ltd incurred a start- up cost of £27,754. In 2021, CILIP Pathways Ltd made a profit of £22,002.

Further information on investment in subsidiary companies is set out in note 11.

5. Investment powers and selection of investments

The Royal Charter gives powers to the trustees to invest the monies of the Institute not immediately required for the furtherance of its objects in or upon such investments, securities or property as may thought fit. The Byelaws allow the Board to delegate power to an investment manager to buy and sell investments on behalf of the Institute, within a prescribed investment policy.

Funds which are expected to be available for more than two years may be put into long-term investments to provide both income and capital growth. Funds available for investment on either short or long-term periods are invested with appropriate external fund managers, who will comply with our investment objectives. The Finance, Audit and Risk Committee makes decisions on which managers are used.

CILIP’s investment policy and investment:

The trustees will not invest directly in investments which conflict with CILIP’s aims and objectives as set out in the Royal Charter.

Restricted investments classified as long-term investments and unrestricted investments classified as short-term investments to fund CILIP’s strategic plan capital projects.

CILIP holds units in M&G Charifund. The Fund had a net yield of 4% in 2021 (2020: 6.0%). In addition to offering an attractive yield, Charifund has a strong long-term performance record.

The value of the total investments increased in 2021 by 13% to £979,169 with unrealised net gain of £114,887 due to the stock market. Further information on CILIP’s investments is set out in note 10.

6. Reserves policy

CILIP’s reserves policy designed to determine the level of reserves required to:

Under the policy in place in 2021, the reserves required to fund central operations are a minimum of three months’ (£872,564) and a maximum of six months’ operating costs (£1,745,127). Central office reserves stood at £958,817 at 31 December 2021, which equates to approximately three months’ costs.

24 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

In addition, the policy allows sums to be set aside in designated reserves for important expenditure outside the normal operating budget. If overspend occurs, this needs to be recouped within a few years.

This policy also applied to Member Networks, which retain separate reserves sufficient to fund their own activities. Member Networks’ reserve stood at £693,294 in 2021 (2020: £678,915).

Going concern assessment

In June 2022, although the most severe implications of the COVID-19 pandemic appear to have passed in the UK, there are still some uncertainties about the long term effect on income. Trustees are satisfied that an effective plan and risk controls are in place to enable the organisation to transition from its existing premises at 7Ridgmount Street to a stable future operating model. Having reviewed the funding facilities available to CILIP together with the expected future cash flows, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that CILIP has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future and consider that there were no material uncertainties over CILIP’s financial viability. Accordingly, the trustees are of the view that CILIP is a going concern.

7. Principal risks and uncertainties

The Board recognises its responsibility for ensuring a sound system of risk management and internal control is in place. The Finance, Audit and Risk Committee provides assurance to the Board that this system is adequate and appropriate. The Senior Management Team is responsible for implementing the system of risk management and internal control and for identifying and evaluation of risks, putting in place appropriate mitigating action and monitoring and reporting progress.

Key risks identified during the year were:

Financial risk including possible declining income from membership income and tenant income; potential increasing costs in relation to pensions; fall in value of investments. Mitigating actions include regular review of risk by Finance, Audit and Risk Committee and Senior Leadership Team (SLT); introduction of new subscription levels and diversification of membership; introduction of marketing and sales strategy; and regular meetings with Pension Trustees and investment advisers.

Operational risk including possible failure to deliver business plan, failure to meet objectives throughout the year, failure to retain and motivate staff through extended periods of working at home. Mitigating actions include reviewing annual delivery plan at every SLT meeting, strong leadership from Board and SLT, regular communications with staff.

Reputational risk including failure to identify potential sources of reputational risk; failure to have in place adequate protocols for responding to events which carry reputational risk; failure to fully embrace obligations to equalities, diversity and inclusion. Mitigating actions include ensuring that reputational risk is factored into risk assessments, identifying key staff with responsibility for reputational risk, ensuring that we have a comprehensive equalities, diversity and inclusion change programme and that diversity is reflected in our leadership.

25 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Compliance risk including possible breaches of CILIP’s legal and regulatory duties; breaches of CILIP’s duties under the Data Protection Act and the General Data Protection Regulation; breaches of CILIP’s cyber security. Mitigating actions include Finance, Audit and Risk Committee regularly reviewing internal controls and implementation, CILIP website and virtual learning environment is secured with SSL encryption, new systems configured to comply with GDPR.

The risk register is regularly reviewed by the Board, Senior Leadership Team and by the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee. The trustees continue to assess the risks and uncertainties brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.

8. Structure, governance and management

CILIP Board

Members of the Board are trustees of CILIP for the purpose of charity legislation.

The Board has twelve members elected directly by the membership, with a provision for up to three co-opted members to achieve a balance in the event of missing skills or jurisdictions. Should vacancies remain after an election, these also may be filled through the appointment process. During 2021, all the twelve Board members were in place. All of these Board members were individual members of CILIP. In 2021 three co-opted members served on the Board of which one was co-opted as a new professional. The Chair of the Board, John Trevor-Allen stood down on 27 January 2022 and was replaced by Sue Lacey Bryant.

Reporting to the Board are the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee, which oversees CILIP’s financial management and control, statutory accounts, investments and pension liabilities; and provides reassurance that proportionate mechanisms exist to manage risk, strategy, compliance and finance.

Chief Executive

Day-to-day management of the Charity delegated by the trustees to the Chief Executive, who is responsible for managing staff and resources to implement the decisions made by the Board. The Chief Executive is also included as key management personnel and his salary reviewed and agreed by the Remuneration Committee.

Key management personnel

Other key management personnel in 2021, in addition to the Chief Executive were the Chief Operating Officer; Director of Transformation, Chief Development Officer; Editor, Information Professional; Head of CILIP in Scotland; Head of Digital and IT; Head of Facilities; Head of Finance; Head of Sales and Marketing; Head of Publishing; Head of Sector Development and Head of Programmes. Their salaries are included in CILIP’s general pay scales.

Trustees’ induction and training

In January 2021 an induction day was held for all existing and new trustees. The focus was on the role of the Board and of individual trustees as well as on their financial, risk management responsibilities and collective decision-making.

Each new trustee received a welcome pack, which included:

26 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Changes to legislation or other rules affecting CILIP reported to CILIP Board to keep trustees upto-date.

Office of the President

The Office of the President comprises the President, the Vice-President and the Immediate Past President. They are directly elected by the membership, and are independent of the trustees of CILIP. Members of the Presidential Team represent CILIP at functions and events as well as being ex-officio on all committees.

The Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting, normally held in September/October each year, approves the member subscription rate for the following year and agrees the appointment of CILIP’s auditors. It also approves by resolution any proposed changes to the Royal Charter and Byelaws (subject to approval by the Privy Council). In all other respects, its role is mainly advisory but the CILIP Board will give serious consideration to its recommendations.

The Finance, Audit and Risk Committee

The purpose of the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee is to assess CILIP’s overall governance framework for fitness-for-purpose, to identify and escalate issues and to confirm to the Board that proportionate mechanisms exist to manage risk, strategy, compliance and finance. The Committee contributes to audit planning, identifying areas of concern, receiving and reviewing the audit report and monitoring the management response.

Following consideration of the Audit Findings Report, risk management, internal controls and other items discussed by the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee during the course of its work in 2020, it did not identify any particular issues to report as a matter of concern to the Board.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Policies).

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its net income for that year, and adequately distinguish any material special trust or other restricted fund of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:

a) Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charity, and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts & Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the Royal Charter.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

This Annual Report and Accounts complies with current statutory requirements, the requirements of CILIP’s Royal Charter and the current Statement of Recommended Practice on Accounting and Reporting by Charities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE OF LIBRARY AND INFORMATION PROFESSIONALS

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (the ‘parent charity’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group or charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the group financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the group financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the group financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

32 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the group financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of group financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the group financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made or having effect there under.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the group financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below:

We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the group and the sector in which it operates and considered the risk of the group not complying with the relevant laws and regulations including fraud in particular those that could have a material impact on the financial statements. This included those regulations directly related to the financial statements, including financial reporting, and tax legislation. In relation to the operations of the group this included compliance with the Charities Act 2011.

The risks were discussed with the audit team and we remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. We carried out specific procedures to address the risks identified.

These included the following:

Reviewing minutes of Board meetings, reviewing any correspondence with the Charity Commission, agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation, and made enquiries of management and officers of the group and a review of legal fees.

To address the risk of management override of controls, we carried out testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness. We also assessed management bias in relation to the accounting policies adopted and in determining significant accounting estimates.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Accounts

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of accounting

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

CILIP’s functional currency is pounds sterling and the address is 7 Ridgmount street, London WC1E 7AE.

CILIP is a charity under Royal Charter and meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

The consolidated financial statements presented show the consolidated statement of financial activities, balance sheet and cash flows of the CILIP Group for the year ended 31 December 2021. The CILIP Group financial statements consolidate the accounts of CILIP as a charity and CILIP Pathways Ltd wholly owned trading subsidiary on a line-byline basis.

Going concern

These financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. The trustees has considered the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the going concern assumptions. The Finance and Audit Risk committee has reviewed and approved a detailed impact assessment presented by the Chief Executive Officer, Director of Transformation and Head of Finance on 30[th] June 2022.

Although the most severe implications of the COVID-19 pandemic appear to have passed in the UK, there are still some uncertainties about the long term effect on income. Trustees are satisfied that an effective plan and risk controls are in place to enable the organisation to transition from its existing premises at 7 Ridgmount Street to a stable future operating model.

Having reviewed the funding facilities available to CILIP together with the expected future cash flows in financial years 2022 and 2023, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that CILIP has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future and consider that there were no material uncertainties over CILIP’s financial viability. Accordingly, the trustees are of the view that CILIP is a going concern.

The particular accounting policies adopted by the Trustees described below and have been applied consistently throughout the current and preceding year.

1.2 Income

All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when CILIP is legally entitled to them as income or capital respectively, ultimate receipt is reasonably certain and the amount to be recognised quantified with reasonable accuracy.

38 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

1.3 Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Building costs Square footage occupied ICT and Personnel costs Per Capita basis Finance costs Estimated time spent Governance costs Proportion of total charitable expenditure and cost of raising fund

Governance costs relate to the organisational administration in compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

Costs of raising funds are primarily those incurred in raising funds for CILIP’s charitable activities.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

1.4 Operating leases

Rental incomes under operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessors are recognised in the statement of financial activities as income.

1.5 Employee benefits

Short term benefits

Short term benefits including holiday pay are recognised as an expense in the period in which the service is received.

39 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Employee termination benefits

Termination benefits are accounted for on an accruals basis and in line with FRS 102.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Freehold property: revaluation to market value every year has been adopted. In any accounting period where a revaluation is not undertaken an impairment review will be conducted and provision would be made for any impairment.

Depreciation: is charged at the following rates, which are expected to reduce the assets to their net realisable values over their expected lives:

Furniture, fixtures and equipment 20% per annum on cost Computers and programs 25% per annum on cost Plant and machinery Various rate

All tangible fixed assets are capitalised, subject to a cost threshold of £1,000.

1.7 Investments

Investments are listed on a recognised stock exchange and stated at fair value at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals throughout the year.

1.8 Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making allowance for any obsolete or slow moving items. In the case of work in progress and finished goods, costs consists of direct materials, direct labour and attributable overheads. Net realisable value means estimated selling price less all further costs to completion and all costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.

1.9 Financial instruments

CILIP has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. Fixed assets are recorded at depreciated historical cost and investments are recorded at fair value, being the closing market value, with unrecognised gains or losses being posted to the SOFA. All other assets and liabilities are recorded at cost which is their fair value.

1.10 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due

1.11 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term deposits with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of opening of the deposit or similar account.

1.12 Creditors and Provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised when CILIP has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

40 | CILIP Annual Report & Accounts 2021

1.14 Accounting judgements and estimates

1.15 CILIP operates two pension schemes:

1.15.1 CILIP operates a defined benefit pension scheme on behalf of employees.

The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of CILIP in an independently administered fund. The scheme is funded by contributions from the employer in accordance with the recommendations of independent qualified actuaries on the basis of triennial valuations. The Pensions Act 2004 sets out a statutory funding objective: that every pension scheme must have sufficient and appropriate assets to cover its funding target (referred to in legislation as Technical Provisions) and if there is a shortfall the trustees and the employer are required to agree a Recovery Plan to make this good. The Pension Scheme trustees have accepted a charge of the full value of the building secured on the freehold property against the shortfall. The pension scheme was closed to new members on 1 April 2009 and was closed to existing members for further accruals from 31 March 2011.

For CILIP’s defined benefit pension scheme the amounts charged in arriving at net income/ (expenditure) in the Statement of Financial Activities are the expenses and net interest costs & income, employer’s contributions and benefits paid. Actuarial gains and losses are also recognised in the SOFA together with other recognised gains and losses. Further details of the defined benefit pension scheme are set out in note 22.

1.15.2 CILIP also operates a defined contribution pension scheme

22 PENSION COMMITMENTS

CILIP operates two pension schemes;

CILIP’s existing employees were entitled to join the Scottish Widows group stakeholder salary sacrifice pension scheme, which is funded, by 5% of salary contribution from employee and 10% of salary contribution by the employer. New and existing employees who are not in the scheme may join at any time. Staff may opt-out of the scheme at any time.

The amount paid into the scheme by CILIP in 2021 was £141,240 (2020: £130,717). The amount within trade creditors in note 14 above was £18,294 (2020: £16,656).

22.2 A Defined Benefit Pension Scheme in the UK.

This is a separate trustee administered fund, holding the pension scheme assets to meet long term pension liabilities. The results of the most recent triennial actuarial valuation as at 31 December 2019 revealed a funding shortfall of £9,538,000.

To eliminate this funding shortfall, the Pension Trustee and CILIP (the Employer) have agreed that contributions toatalling £9,500,000 will be paid to the Scheme by the Employer on or before 31 December 2022.
