ILA 2025 Annual Conference!
October 14-16, 2025
Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, Rosemont
You Belong Here
In 2025, we will celebrate inclusivity and belonging for patrons and library workers alike with the ILA Conference theme: You Belong Here.
Belonging happens when you are not just included - but when you are valued. When a person feels that they belong, they feel loved, seen, prioritized, celebrated, placed at the center, made space for. We will explore how libraries foster belonging within our spaces; how libraries build strong relationships with diverse communities and address their unique needs; how we as library workers hold space for each other within our profession; and examine how belonging fits in with diversity, inclusion, equity, and accessibility efforts within libraries.
Would you like to increase your visibility to thousands of library professionals and show your support for their important work? Contact Kristin Pekoll, kpekoll@ila.org to join this notable group of sponsors.
