Libraries Summit

Learn and share at one of DrupalCon's many industry and topic-focused summits. Summits are typically day-long, separately ticketed events, but for DrupalCon Global they have been shortened and incorporated within the main conference programming. Come for medley of short presentations and discussion, at no extra charge.

Back for the second year, the Libraries Summit at DrupalCon is an opportunity to join your fellow library technologists in a day of discussion, collaboration, and inspiration in all things library and Drupal!

We welcome library technologists of all experience levels. Whether you do front-end or back-end development, project management, content strategy, create content for your library's website, or implement digital projects, we think you'll find something worthwhile at the Libraries Summit. Gain insight about how libraries across North America are using Drupal to serve their communities. Gather tips and strategies on how to make your sites more usable, more secure and more accessible. Network with other library Drupalers to collaborate and find solutions for common library-specific issues. Celebrate successes, commiserate over missteps and discuss the exciting new tech advances in Drupal and other web experiences.
