CREATING TOMORROW: SPREADING IDEAS & LEARNING
With computers not only in and around libraries but also libraries in computers these days, tomorrow should be very interesting
in the information world. Libraries are definitely at the forefront of experimenting with and adopting new technology, tools and
processes.
Our conference theme, Creating Tomorrow: Spreading Ideas & Learning, focuses on leading edge
technology tools, processes, and practices in libraries, as well as the new spaces and places where their products and services
thrive. Join us at the most comprehensive conference for library and information professionals interested in technology to discover
insights, strategies and practices that will allow us to create tomorrow and manage computers, libraries, digital information, and people
in a cohesive, exciting, and productive way.
