ALIA’s National Conferences, symposiums and summits are the Australian LIS sector events of the year. They provide professionals and interested supporters the opportunity to renew old ties, make new connections, keep abreast of the very latest in professional practice and research from across Australia and overseas, as well as to contribute to the body of knowledge and to the evolution of the profession. Of course they're a great way to meet with dozens of LIS suppliers to learn about the latest tools and options available.
