Conference Registration

October 13-15, 2020

SCLA is going virtual for this year's annual conference! The 2020 virtual conference will be held on Tuesday, October 13th - Thursday, October 15th.

The conference theme is “Imagine. Learn. Create. Together.” Initially, this theme was developed earlier in the year to reinforce that we are all in this together. Through SCLA, we can create connections across the state to learn from each other and to advocate together. The pandemic has created a new meaning for this conference. We have all had to adapt to a new normal very quickly. Tell us what changes you made and how things went. Tell us what new technologies you implemented and how it helped you and/or your patrons. Tell us what challenges you are facing and how you are working through them. Let’s learn together because we are all in this together!
