Registration is now open for the 12th annual Lake Superior Libraries Mid-Winter Unsymposium at the Superior Public Library! Join us on January 12th, 2024, for an afternoon of networking, discussion, and collaborative problem-solving!

Sometimes you need a break from the average conference: you need an UNCONFERENCE! At the LSLS Unsymposium, you determine the conversation. Participants brainstorm a host of topics, which are then selected in a bottom-up, democratic manner. Rather than listening to a single speaker, you get to ask questions, interact, and offer your own expertise on a topic chosen by the whole group. So...everyone wants to talk about collection development? Done. You’re the only one who wants to talk about library-themed cupcakes? Maybe we’ll talk about them next time! Together, we’ll discover our common challenges and develop solutions collaboratively. You'll come away from the Unsymposium invigorated by lively discussions and ready to take that excitement back to your library.

The Unsymposium is free and open to everyone. Register today!

WHEN:  1:00-4:30 pm, Friday, January 12th, 2024 (Join us for a pre-unsymposium lunch at 11:30 am at Bucktales Cantina & Grill in Superior. Participants are responsible for purchasing their own drinks and meals.)
COST: Just your time!
