[Michlib-l] Futures Conference Sept. 25-26, 2017 in Atlantic City, NJ

[White, Shannon (MDE)]

Sharing this information about a conference in New Jersey this September about the future of libraries.
What does the future of libraries look like? How will libraries be impacted by technology? How will they communicate and what tools will be available to help libraries adapt in order to best suit their customers' needs?
Join librarians from across the country in beginning a discussion on how libraries need to change in order to thrive in the next decade. We imagine a morphing of imagination, inspiration, and information that will transform the way libraries look at the future. Hear speakers share their vision, engage in small group discussions and be a part of a conference where EVERYONE walks away with a plan to navigate the future through newly envisioned possibilities.
