We’ve extended the LITA members early-bird registration another two weeks, so there’s still time to register for the 2016 LITA Forum at the early-bird rate and save $50. LITA Forum early-bird rates will now end on Friday, October 14. To register, click here. The early-bird rate for LITA members is $340; after October 14, it increases to $390. The rate for non-members ($614) remains the same. More information about this year’s Forum is below.
Join us in Fort Worth, Texas, at the Omni Fort Worth Hotel located in Downtown Fort Worth, for the 2016 LITA Forum, a three-day (Thursday, November 17 to Sunday, November 20) education and networking event featuring two preconferences, three keynote sessions, more than 55 concurrent sessions, and 25 poster presentations. It’s the 19th annual gathering of the highly-regarded LITA Forum for technology-minded information professionals. Meet with your colleagues involved in new and leading edge technologies in the library and information technology field. Registration is limited in order to preserve the important networking advantages of a smaller conference. Attendees take advantage of the informal Friday evening reception, networking dinners and other social opportunities to get to know colleagues and speakers.
