Welcome to the 2007 Utah Library Associations Annual Conference. This year’s conference will be held at the Provo Marriott Hotel and Convention Center, May 16th – 18th. This is the first year the Utah Library Association has held an annual conference in Utah County.

The Conference theme is Living Libraries: Remembering our Past Planning our Future. We are currently in the infancy of a living web, where authorship and publishing models are moving from a select few to a global community. As living libraries move into the age of a living web, we as librarians need to consciously plan our future. Historically librarians have been the keepers of recorded human knowledge. What responsibilities will be ours in a living web environment? Can we maintain the historical values, missions, and roles of librarianship as we move toward the future? Please join us at this year’s conference for lively programs and discussion.
