SLA Seeking Presenters for 2025 Libraries Conference

The SLA is now accepting session proposals for the 2025 Saskatchewan Libraries Conference.


The theme for this year's conference is "Grow with Your Library" which acknowledges the many ways libraries encourage a "growth mindset" by promoting personal development as learners, leaders, and community builders.


The SLA Conference Program Committee invites presenter submissions in the below broad areas:


  • Highlighting the role libraries play in providing equitable access to programs and services;
  • Fostering opportunity for users to exchange ideas;
  • Building relationships and connections in communities; 
  • Supporting information literacy in the classroom and community;
  • Encouraging lifelong learning in our communities and workplaces.


We are seeking innovative and engaging content for this year's event. If you have an industry-specific program, presentation, or special knowledge you'd like to share, we'd love to hear from you! The deadline to submit your session proposal is November 29, 2024.


The 2025 Saskatchewan Libraries Conference will take place May 8-9, 2025 at TCU Place in Saskatoon. All conference sessions will be held in-person at the conference venue. Submissions from within Saskatchewan and outside the province are welcome.
