Workshop Proposals Being Sought for LMI Summer Conference in Philadelphia

Now celebrating its 7th year, The Library Management Institute Summer Conference is a national conference focusing exclusively on current issues in library management and administration and is attended by library managers from across North America. There are two tracks each day; one in public library management and the other in academic and special library management. This year, the LMI Summer Conference will held in downtown Philadelphia to allow our attendees to enjoy the summer nightlife that Philadelphia offers including the concerts, the restaurants, the historic district, and other venues. This new location is much closer to the airport and to the Amtrak station.

The dates for this year?s LMI Summer Conference are Monday June 16th and Tuesday June 17th.
