The Association of Christian Librarians hosts an annual conference in order to inform attendees about contemporary trends in librarianship, stimulate professional development, encourage networking, and provide opportunities for the exchange of ideas. The conference is also one way that ACL can bring our members into community to encourage one another as Christian librarians primarily serving in Christian higher education around the globe. Librarians should attend who are looking to advance in their profession, engage with like-minded professionals and be refreshed and encouraged for the upcoming year.

The 2022 ACL Annual Conference is going HYBRID!

Hybrid...!? What does that mean?

A hybrid conference has both in-person and online virtual participation. It's like a marriage of our traditional pre-COVID conference with what we did in 2021 when our conference was virtual and hosted through Whova. Newman University in Witcha, Kansas is our gracious host for those who can travel to the in-person conference. If you are not comfortable or able to travel, you can still participate in conference through the online platform.

As a result of feedback and an attempt to keep costs down, this year's conference will be a little shorter, starting first thing Monday, June 13, and concluding Wednesday, June 15 with lunch.
