Conference Planning Committee 2024
Overview
The DLA/MLA Conference takes place in Cambridge, Maryland, May 8-10, 2024. The DLA/MLA Conference represents the full range of library organizations (academic, school, public, specialized, etc.) and positions within the library. We want to see submissions from those in public, private, school, and academic libraries.
We want to see submissions from librarians, support staff, circulation staff, those in the collection development department, catalogers, leaders, human resource generalists, those doing mobile services, degreed and non-degreed workers, processing staff, graphic designers, those fundraising for their organization, etc.! Because of this, we encourage and invite submissions/participation from staff at all levels and types of organizations
