Aloha! Welcome to #IamHawaii
Aloha!
On behalf of the Board of the International Association of Aquatic and Marine Science Libraries and Information Centers and the University of Hawaii at Manoa it is a distinct pleasure to welcome you to Honolulu. Aloha!
The theme of this year’s conference is Blurring the Edges: the Osmosis of Ideas. The “What†of libraries and information centers is an enormous undertaking. Creation, maintenance, discovery and delivery of physical and electronic resources consumes most of our time. But what about the “How†of those resources? How did they get created? Who created them? What “Whats†are the future of our profession? Blurring the Edges: The Osmosis of Ideas will explore not only the “What†but “How†information, tools and resources are created.
Where do ideas for innovation originate? Who inside and outside of our profession collaborates on ideas? How can you bring a new perspective to what we do to create something totally new and unexpected?
We hope that you will find this conference rewarding, informative and fun. We know you’ll encounter new ideas and new friends. IAMSLIC is a unique organization and we want to inspire you in your career, your workplace and with your IAMSLIC family. Let us know if there is any way we can be of help to you.
We kick of proceedings today Sunday, October 22 @3pm with our First Executive Board Meeting and then we can all relax and introduce ourselves to the delegates at the Butter Mochi Welcome Reception this evening @6pm
Our full conference program is available here
Enjoy!
