Design in Librarianship Online Research Conference: Building Skills and Community with Librarian-Researchers. This virtual conference will take place on November 18-19, 2024 and is free for all attendees. Join us to foster a sense of community and promote
research collaboration. We hope that this conference will spark conversations about current library research and introduce fresh perspectives, diverse experiences, and cutting-edge innovations in library research design and methodologies. Proposals for both
Research Tools Petting Zoo and Seven-Minute Scholarship presentations will be accepted until July 31, 2024.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
