During the 2012 Annual Conference, our primary programming and networking event, the theme of LOUD LIBRARIAN: Defining Ourselves and our Profession will be at the forefront of our learning experiences. Our aim is to teach library professionals how to articulate our mission and adapt our message of value to different audiences. We hope you will consider being a part of the conversation and advocate for the role that librarians play in our ever-changing society.
