An illuminating and thought-provoking conference that provides a solid and professional platform for scholars and practitioners in the library and information sciences to come together to collaborate, discuss, and analyze many of the major ideas, issues, and challenges of and for libraries and information. An informative and interesting space for those individuals and institutions involved in the LIS field.

The Library 2.013 collaboration is a grand example of emerging community on a global scale. Both the session topics and the very act of connecting to professional colleagues around the globe brings fresh perspectives and vibrancy to the world of ideas and information.

Library 2.0 is an incredible event that I hope to be part of in the future! Having participated as a presenter and moderator (both for the first time this year), it was exhilarating to interact with colleagues from all over the world.

It's awesome! I am a full time manager and a full time student so I can only access to much of this given the other parameters of my life at this time. Recordings being available is invaluable! This kind of conference being presented by SJSU SLIS shows how much of an industry leader they are. I'm proud to be earning my MLIS at SJSU!

This is a great way to connect and bring more awareness to the state of libraries and the profession around the world.

A great idea!! I sat at my office in Jamaica and participated in a session with librarians globally!! Fantastic!

I can't thank you enough for this conference. Our library does not have the funding to send us to conferences and even online webinars can be expensive. This conference is not only free but the ability to hear from people around the world is priceless.

Keep it up, because if it wasn't for this conference I don't think I would have the opportunity to learn new ideas or find out how others tackle problems in the library environment.

Other than personal computer difficulties which prevent me from having a reliable connection, I have enjoyed the presentations, organization and evidence of repeat participatory culture (annual loyalty), and depth and variety of topics -
– a true global village in action.

Please keep doing this. It is a wonderful resource for librarians who don't have many opportunities for professional development.

Very good selection of presenters this year. I wish I had more time to see/hear more sessions. Glad they are available via link though!

Love, love this conference! Want more of it! I find the weekend timing a bit tricky to manage,and the weekdays (such as last year) works a bit better. But keep it coming. Such a great professional development opportunity.
