    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. 

    Conference registration open in June 2023.
