Library 2.021 Worldwide Virtual Conference
The San José State University School of Information is currently making plans for the Library 2.021 mini-conference series to be held in March, June and October, with the March conference bringing the long-running bilingual (Spanish and English) Seguimos Creando Enlaces (Creating Connections) conference online.
