Membership is based on representation from institutions that have organised a conference, largely in the last 10 years. This reflects the main purpose of the group, which is to act as the collective memory of the conference, thus helping to share expertise, spread good practice and generally keep the show on the road. The latter includes making decisions on the future location and hosting of the event. The group currently meets twice a year, once at conference itself and once in mid-cycle to make the decision on location for the following year or years. No independent financial resources are held by the group. All conferences have to be self-financing. Part of the surplus from recent conferences has been invested in the ILPC website, whose technical coordinator is Graham Lynch, based at Strathclyde. All calls for papers or bids to run the conference are posted on the website.
In addition to and working with the Steering group, two sub-groups have responsibility for publishing activities.
