Highlighting dynamic experiments
in the library world today!
Virtual Conference SpeakersALA Virtual Conference offers two days of
interactive Web sessions, talks, and insights from experts. From
building our own ebook platforms to publishing the local community's
unique content and adding a DIY/Maker service for users, the presenters
highlight how new services are transforming both their libraries and
their communities. Sessions offer starting points for discussion as well
as practical ideas for moving forward and trying something new.
