We are open to a variety of topics and themes; if your topic does not neatly fit into the above categories, we still welcome your proposal. Access the form on the latest Stronger Together site or fill in the application form here. Join us virtually on November 3rd or in person November 9th and 10th as we once again grow Stronger Together.

Started in 2020 as a response to the global pandemic, Stronger Together has since welcomed 1000s of participants from across the province, country and world.

This year, Stronger Together will be offered in a hybrid format, with one full conference day online and two in-person days at the River Cree Resort and Casino in Enoch, AB (west Edmonton).

Participants can attend one, two or three days of learning, with a variety of registration options and sessions suited for anyone who works with and loves libraries. Saves the date(s) and plan to attend!
