Internet Librarian International

The Internet Librarian International is a two-day event that has been held since 1999 with the aim of equipping librarians and other information professionals with the latest solutions and technological innovations in their field. The sessions focus on providing attendees with cutting-edge resources that can help them manage information more efficiently in their working environments.

The Internet Librarian International conference consists of a series of interactive workshops, keynote speeches, and hands-on sessions that have an eminently practical focus. Networking opportunities are plentiful too, so that attendees can expand their network of contacts and explore opportunities for professional development.

This event is organised by Information Today, a monthly online publication that specialises in the information management industry.
