Save the DateS! 2023 LILi Conference

  • 1.  Save the DateS! 2023 LILi Conference

    Posted Jan 23, 2023 01:39 PM

    SAVE-THE-DATES!

    Thursday, July 27 (morning) & Friday, July 28 (afternoon), 2023 

    Yes! LILi (Lifelong Information Literacy Group) breaks new ground with a 2-day (1/2 day each) free online Conference!


    THEME: "Small Victories in Information Literacy!"

    Full-blown information literacy (IL)/lifelong learning programs take time to design, develop, test out, and implement, even if institutions/organizations provide full funding. How do they get started? Where do ideas for programs or initiatives come from? Small scale victories (and even failures!) can offer clues and data to support new or even updated initiatives. 

    Think about your small IL/lifelong learning victories and get ready to share them via a proposal to present at the next LILi Conference!

    CFP to follow soon, with Conference registration open in June 2023.
