Welcome

This exciting international conference has grown out of an increasing interest in using the best available evidence to improve library and information practice in all types of libraries. The conference on May 6-9 will be followed by two days of continuing education. The program will provide a forum for the presentation of high quality research papers and posters as well as dynamic discussions of the transformative role of evidence-based practice in the profession.
