November 14, 2025
9 AM - 3:30 PM
Join LACONI Technical Services Section for the Technical Services Unconference, a not-quite unconference for Technical Services professionals, focused on the challenges and innovations shaping technical services in libraries today.
Whether you're a shelver, cataloger, supervisor, or even in a different department, your experience and insight are vital to this conversation. Come ready to share ideas, ask questions, and exchange strategies with colleagues who understand the work you do.
Want to talk about AI in tech services, handling backlogs, or switching book vendors? Suggest a topic, join a table, and connect with colleagues who’ve been there.
You determine the conversations! Space is limited so register today!
