Our Community
Our membership continues to grow and we’re pleased to have such a great community to engage with.

There are a significant number of tertiary librarians presenting at the LIANZA Conference and considering the multiple sessions, workshops and speakers relevant to our community, you won't want to miss out on attending in-person or online.
