Theme: Falling into Place

Join us in beautiful Hamilton, ON, for Canada’s premier conference on information literacy and library instruction! WILU 2025 is hosted from June 9th – 12th, 2025 at McMaster University.

In a world full of uncertainty, the library classroom brims with potential to be a space of care and criticality. Our approaches to teaching and learning have the power to cultivate connections, exemplify our values, and extend our reach beyond the walls of the library. In doing this work, our relationships are paramount: with our colleagues, learners, communities, and the Earth.

With this in mind, we ask: how do we create learning environments, in person or online, that inspire feelings of belonging and inclusion, where everyone has a place? How is our work shaped by the institutions, communities, and spaces in which we find ourselves? How do we invite learners to grow and shape their learning alongside us? How might commitment to climate sustainability and stewardship be mirrored in our library instructional practices? How do we, as practitioners, support one another, enhance our collective impact, and build professional communities where our identities can flourish?
