Library Assessment Conference

Thank you for attending the second Library Assessment Conference: Building Effective, Sustainable, Practical Assessment at the University of Washington in Seattle. We are gratified by the great response to the conference. The number of registrants increased from 220 in 2006 to more than 375 in 2008! The conference goal is to support and nurture the library assessment community through a mix of invited speakers, contributed papers and posters, workshops, and engaging discussion. The conference is geared toward library and information professionals and researchers with responsibility for or an interest in the broad field of library assessment with an emphasis on (but not limited) to North American academic libraries. We look forward to seeing you again at our 2010 Library Assessment Conference!
