*Wednesday, December 5, 2018, 1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. (Eastern, US & Canada)*

Have 3D printers become commonplace? Is someone in your library using pizza
boxes to create their next-generation VR viewer? Perhaps you're wondering
just how sophisticated (and how spacious) a Maker Space needs to be these
days. What are the expectations from students and faculty? What tools and
services need to be part of a library's maker space?

Confirmed speakers for this event include:

   - *Angi Faiks*, Associate Library Director, Macalester College,
   - *Grover Saunders*, Head of Innovation Spaces for JMU's Libraries and
   Educational Technology, James Madison University;
   - *Jenny Wong-Welch*, STEM Librarian and *Keven Jeffery*, Digital
   Technologies Librarian, San Diego State University.



*NISO Virtual Conference*, *The Library of the Future: Inside and Out

Wednesday, December 12, 2018, 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.

As libraries re-evaluate and redesign the services offered to their
communities, the ripples of change can be felt across the institution. New
job titles and functions appear in university employment postings-clinical
information specialist, data scientist, assessment librarian. Space
previously given over to stacks is reallocated. Information resources and
tools reshape the library's budget. Whether the process is visible or
invisible to the library patron, the functions of the library are being
re-engineered at a core level. What are the implications for library
directors? And for content and platform providers?



Confirmed speakers for this event include:

   - *Gail Clement, *Head of Research Services, California Institute of
   Technology
   - *Nancy Davenport*, University Librarian, American University
   - *Karen Diaz*, Dean of Libraries, West Virginia University
   - *Judy Luther, *President, Informed Strategies
