What do you want at the next Libraries Summit?
Based on the success of the first Libraries Summit at this past DrupalCon, there's going to be one next year at DrupalCon Minneapolis 2020 as well!
The planning team has started meeting and we're looking for your input on what sessions we should have. In Seattle, we had great sessions talking about topics like decoupling and content management, as well as some meaningful breakout sessions on topics like security, accessibility, and events management. So what should we have in Minneapolis?

Drupal for OPAC session at ALA2013 - vote now!
Hi All,
For those folks going to ALA in Chicago (or even if you are not) it would be great if you could vote for the session - “Liberate Your Information” - Revolutionizing the Library Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC) with Drupal.
Kelly Lucas did a lightening session on this at Code4Lib, but this is a fantastic topic for anyone interested in seeing the infinite possibilities with Drupal - in this case integrating with third-party library systems.
Take two seconds to vote, just click here:

Thanks!
