 | Dear Colleague,
From one librarian to another, I am excited to announce the full program for the 2017 TechKnowledge virtual conference (formerly The Digital Shift)!
On October 18, 2017, join LJ and SLJ in a dynamic, day-long, FREE virtual conference that brings together thousands of library professionals and thought leaders from around the globe to discuss this year's theme, Creating Equity Through Technology.
This virtual conference will address how technology solutions are supporting equity and inclusion within and among libraries' diverse communities. Our expert speakers and panelists will present innovative ideas and tools for and from libraries of all types—school, public, and academic.
Explore emerging technologies, exciting service models, innovative programming, new ways of sparking learning and engagement, and the evolving tech ecosystem through four high-content learning tracks. Register today to secure your place. | Take a look at some of the exciting presentations
in this year's lineup: - An opening panel on the mission-critical topic of Building Equity and Access in a Challenged Net Neutrality Landscape, convened by American Library Association President Jim Neal and key advocates for Net Neutrality
- From the Newsroom to the News Feed: How do we investigate forces shaping news production and distribution and respond to them? curated by Electronic Resources and Libraries (ER&L) and featuring presenters from the Data and Society Research Institute
- Good Chemistry: Building Equity and Inclusion Through Creative Partnerships, curated by the Knight Foundation
- All Means All: Technology Levels that Level the Playing Field in School Libraries, Monica Cabarcas and Erica Thorsen, librarians at Albemarle High School (VA)

| Join us as we continue to press forward to create and improve library service through the coherent application of technology to mission.
TechKnowledge is a FREE virtual conference: no traveling costs, no accommodation costs, no attendance fees–ALL CONTENT. Even if you can't join us on the day, you can still access the event on-demand.
I look forward to meeting you virtually on October 18.
Best,
