Revolutionizing the Net with Content, Connections & Conversations

Internet librarians have been revolutionizing the Net for many years and are creating opportunities for connections and conversations, adding value to and providing access to many types of content, implementing user friendly interfaces, and much more. Hear about leading edge tools and techniques for revolutionizing your community, campus or organization at Information Today's 15th annual Internet Librarian. This conference provides the ideal opportunity to gather insights and ideas to ignite our imaginations and spark innovation.

Our conference theme, Revolutionizing the Net with Content, Connections & Conversations emphasizes creative and innovative Internet techniques and practices being used in library and information services to build strong communities with huge ranges of content (in many different formats), multiple types of connections (both digital and in person), and positive conversations which engage participants and add value to their work and their lives!

Join us at the most comprehensive conference for library and information professionals interested in technology to discover the insights, strategies and practices that allow us to push the envelope in expanding the net, manage libraries and digital information, and enhance the information sharing and learning experience of people in our communities.
