A Fully Online Event!
The Library Mini-Conference is an opportunity for library professionals to gather around the world on topics that impact us all. We had hoped to have more opportunity to gather face to face but the Pandemic has had over ideas! This event can be joined fully online via Zoom. We still encourage library teams to gather where possible to participate.
