The PLA 2020 Conference will be an intentionally inclusive convening that highlights innovative work and ideas that address the core challenges facing public libraries and their communities today. We are seeking proposals for educational sessions that align with this emphasis and with PLA’s Guidelines on Core Values and Conference Sites, particularly the following aspirations and intentions:

• Through its conferences, PLA provides high quality education opportunities and seeks to educate and share with host communities our core values and principles;
• PLA conferences have been and will be inclusive as public libraries are community conveners on equity, inclusion, and diversity;
• An intended outcome of our conference will be to raise awareness and ultimately, to impact changes to policies and law that are discriminatory. PLA will use our presence to educate and inspire action.
