A Reference Renaissance 2010: Inventing the Future…
Co-Chaired by Marie Radford and Rivkah Sass, this conference will feature numerous presentations showcasing the latest reference trends and techniques, and will give you new ideas and tools to better serve your customers.
Reference Renaissance 2010: Inventing the Future will explore all aspects of reference service in a broad range of contexts, including libraries and information centers, in academic, public, school, corporate, and other special library environments. This two-day conference will incorporate the multitude of established, emerging, and merging types of reference service including both traditional and virtual reference. It presents an opportunity for all reference practitioners and scholars to explore the evolving nature of reference, as an escalating array of information technologies blend with traditional reference service to create vibrant hybrids, new staffing models, and possibilities that allow us to take reference services to the next level.
The Call for Proposals for this conference is now open.
