      Abstract
      On December 26, 2016, starting at 14:20 (UTC), we observed a large fraction of the localization error range of the Advanced LIGO trigger G211117 (GW151226) with the ILT (International Low-Frequency Array [LOFAR] Telescope). This is an additional set of LOFAR observations of these fields at 1 year following the detection. The observations were obtained with the High-Band Antennas (HBA) at a centre frequency of 145 MHz (bandwidth 15.6 MHz). We used 6 simultaneous beams on the sky, where each beam has a field of view of approximately 12 deg^2 (beam FWHM 3.9 degrees)
