A LOT!
“Connections Summit” has been changed to “Connections” because we are focusing on more meaningful conversations and building relationships.
Day Two offers more choices than previous years. Instead of one track all day long, you can customize your learning path by choosing the sessions most applicable to you, your library, and your software.
Product sessions have been extended with more focus on training and answering questions.
We’ve included an entire day dedicated to discovery.
Discord: Channels are set up to join the conversation, hang out with fellow librarians, and make connections.
On Opening Day, you’ll delve into topics such as generative AI, open access content, social media strategies, coalition building, and leading the charge on digital equity.
On the second day of the conference, those looking to get better acquainted with SirsiDynix will have the opportunity to explore the company’s mission and values—and our robust suite of BLUEcloud products.
All attendees will enjoy an inside look at BLUEcloud product roadmaps and development time lines as well as immersive overviews of product features, functionality, and benefits.
Connections will conclude with the option to select one of three tracks for the day: Partner, Director, Academic.
