VALA2010

 

On behalf of the VALA2010 Conference Committee, it is my pleasure to invite you to Melbourne to attend the premier library technology conference for this region. With an exciting line-up of international and local speakers, and a packed programme focused on the challenges we face today, VALA2010 is a conference you can’t afford to miss.

In 2010, VALA will continue the very popular L-Plate Series as well as introduce an exciting VALA Top Trends Panel session. We will also present the inaugural VALAtech Boot Camp, a practical and technical stream for your library’s systems staff.

VALA is all about the use of technology, and much of the technology we use is sourced from our vendors. In 2010, the VALA trade and exhibition area will be located in a much larger space. We are delighted with the overwhelming support from the vendor community, and I encourage you to check out the Exhibition, as many vendors will be showcasing new and exciting products.

VALA2010 focuses on delivering relevant and practical learning. It also gives you the opportunity to explore the technologies and solutions that will play a role in your libraries. We trust you find this programme exciting and stimulating, and we look forward to meeting you in Melbourne in February 2010.
