Join us in Seattle for the 30th Annual SALIS Conference, as we Step into the Future with a look at emerging technologies and how they are changing the way we work, as well as the future of our organization on this milestone anniversary.  Our program will feature these and other exciting speakers:

 

~ Michael "Libraryman" Porter is a librarian, blogger, trainer, technology fan, and PEZ collector.  Michael will be joining us to talk about “Real Help, Real Connections: Valuable New Technology to Use Now.”

~ Christine Goodair, Programme Coordinator for the International Centre for Drug Policy (UK), will explore the image of libraries from the perspective of being a library user instead of a librarian in her talk, "Making Connections, Engaging the Community: A View from the Other Side."

~ Judit Ward, Director of Information Services at the Center of Alcohol Studies, Rutgers, will address the changing landscape of our profession in a presentation entitled, "Beyond Survival: The Research Library in the 21st Century."

~ Lisa Swanberg, Senior Vice President for Information Services, IQ Solutions, will discuss the transformation of Federal clearinghouses into new information networks and present the SAMHSA Health Information Network as a case study

New! View full agenda here.

SALIS greatly appreciates the support of the vendors and other organizations exhibiting at our conference.

The conference will be held at the Warwick Seattle Hotel, just blocks from the Space Needle in one direction and the heart of downtown Seattle in the other. Famous for its culture, scenery, and entertainment, Seattle is a destination not to be missed on the West Coast.  Seattle has much more to offer than airplanes, coffee, and software!

We look forward to sharing a stimulating program and celebration of this SALIS milestone with you!
