LibLearnX will include opportunities to:

• explore the possible futures for libraries, your career, and your communities when you participate in collaborative and informal education programs.
   
• hear from inspiring thought leaders and celebrity speakers in the LLX Studio.
   
• visit the LLX Marketplace with industry-expert exhibitors highlighting the latest products, titles, technology, and services; and solution-driven discussions and trend updates in the Ideas Xchange and ShopTalk sessions. 
   
• Build your personal network and make new connections and celebrate with peers and colleagues at the award celebrations.

You will receive an invitation upon registering for the conference. If you need a Letter of Invitation before you register for the conference, please complete the Request for Invitation Letter or send a request to the International Relations Office at [email protected].
